Deep Learning with Proteins: fine-tuning protein language models and ESMFold support (PyTorch, TensorFlow)
AI Impact Summary
The content outlines practical transfer-learning capabilities for protein ML, showing how to fine-tune protein-language models and perform protein folding with ESMFold using PyTorch and TensorFlow. It notes that ESMFold is PyTorch-only for now due to OpenFold dependencies, signaling a current framework constraint. This expands the toolbox for biology-focused ML teams and biologists learning ML, enabling faster prototyping, but requires careful coordination of PyTorch/TensorFlow environments and OpenFold dependencies in development pipelines.
