EvolutionaryScale ESMProtein
Schema for the `ESMProtein` object exposed by the EvolutionaryScale `esm` Python SDK and accepted by the Forge ESM3 API. An ESMProtein is the canonical multi-track representation of a protein covering sequence, structure, secondary structure, SASA, and function annotations.
Properties
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| sequence | string | Amino acid sequence in one-letter codes (A, R, N, D, C, E, Q, G, H, I, L, K, M, F, P, S, T, W, Y, V). An underscore `_` denotes a masked position to be filled by generation. |
| coordinates | array | Per-residue atom37 coordinates, shape [L, 37, 3]. Missing atoms are represented as nulls or NaNs depending on serialization. |
| secondary_structure | string | DSSP-style per-residue secondary structure string. Common codes: H (alpha-helix), E (beta-strand), C (coil). |
| sasa | array | Per-residue solvent accessible surface area (square Angstroms). |
| function_annotations | array | Optional list of per-residue function annotations referencing InterPro / GO / Pfam labels. |
| plddt | array | Per-residue pLDDT confidence score (0.0–100.0). |
| ptm | number | Predicted TM-score (0.0–1.0) for the structure. |
