How it works
Schematic of the documented input, computation and output; not an executable configuration.
Read the diagram as text
- Protein sequence
- ESM-2 features
- Folding system
- Recycling
- Predicted structure
The sequence is embedded and converted into a three-dimensional structure. The implementation exposes recycling and chunking controls; those choices affect memory use and the exact evaluated run.
