# MeMDLM: De Novo Membrane Protein Design with Masked Discrete Diffusion Language Models
![image/png](https://cdn-uploads.huggingface.co/production/uploads/65bbea9a26c639b000501321/QQoEGgvJddR2JfE7tzMSR.png)
[Masked Diffusion Language Models (MDLMs)](arxiv.org/pdf/2406.07524), introduced by Sahoo et al, provide strong generative capabilities to BERT-style models. In this work, we pre-train and fine-tune ESM-2-150M protein language model (pLM) on the MDLM objective to scaffold functional motifs and unconditionally generate realistic, high-quality membrane protein sequences.
