Overview
Evo2 potential applications spans from accelerating drug discovery to advancing synthetic biology.
Evo 2 model was trained by Arc Institute. The model training involved a vast dataset of genomes, which enabled Evo 2 to perform a wide range of tasks, from predicting the impact of mutations on protein performance to generating complex molecular systems like CRISPR-Cas complexes. For example, the model demonstrated that it was able to design new versions of the CRISPR genome editor showcased its potential for creating novel biological tools.
Highlights
- Evo2 is a biological foundation model that can integrate information across long genomic sequences while retaining sensitivity to single-nucleotide changes.
- Evo2 can perform zero-shot function prediction for genes. Evo also can perform multi-element generation tasks, such as generating synthetic CRISPR-Cas molecular complexes.
- Evo 2 can also predict gene essentiality at nucleotide resolution and can generate coding-rich sequences up to at least 1M kb in length. Advances in multi-modal and multi-scale learning with Evo provide a promising path toward improving our understanding and control of biology across multiple levels of complexity.
