Masked Diffusion Language Model (MDLM) for Protein Sequence Generation

MDLM, introduced by Sahoo et al (arxiv.org/pdf/2406.07524), provides strong generative capabilities to BERT-style models. In this work, we pre-train and fine-tune ESM-2-150M on the MDLM objective to unconditionally generate realistic, high-quality membrane protein sequences.
