<!-- ##### 🔴 <font color=red>Note: SaProt requires structural (SA token) input for optimal performance. AA-sequence-only mode works but must be finetuned - frozen embeddings work only for SA, not AA sequences! With structural input, SaProt surpasses ESM2 in most tasks.</font> -->

We provide two ways to use SaProt, including through huggingface class and 
through the same way as in [esm github](https://github.com/facebookresearch/esm). Users can choose either one to use.

## Huggingface model
The following code shows how to load the model.
```
from transformers import EsmTokenizer, EsmForMaskedLM

model_path = "/your/path/to/SaProt_650M_AF2"
tokenizer = EsmTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_path)
model = EsmForMaskedLM.from_pretrained(model_path)

#################### Example ####################
device = "cuda"
model.to(device)

seq = "M#EvVpQpL#VyQdYaKv" # Here "#" represents lower plDDT regions (plddt < 70)
tokens = tokenizer.tokenize(seq)
print(tokens)

inputs = tokenizer(seq, return_tensors="pt")
inputs = {k: v.to(device) for k, v in inputs.items()}

outputs = model(**inputs)
print(outputs.logits.shape)

"""
['M#', 'Ev', 'Vp', 'Qp', 'L#', 'Vy', 'Qd', 'Ya', 'Kv']
torch.Size([1, 11, 446])
"""
```

## esm model
The esm version is also stored in the same folder, named `SaProt_650M_AF2.pt`. We provide a function to load the model.
```
from utils.esm_loader import load_esm_saprot

model_path = "/your/path/to/SaProt_650M_AF2.pt"
model, alphabet = load_esm_saprot(model_path)
```

## Predict mutational effect
We provide a function to predict the mutational effect of a protein sequence. The example below shows how to predict
the mutational effect at a specific position. If using the AF2 structure, we strongly recommend that you add pLDDT mask (see below). 
```python
from model.saprot.saprot_foldseek_mutation_model import SaprotFoldseekMutationModel


config = {
    "foldseek_path": None,
    "config_path": "/your/path/to/SaProt_650M_AF2", # Note this is the directory path of SaProt, not the ".pt" file
    "load_pretrained": True,
}
model = SaprotFoldseekMutationModel(**config)
tokenizer = model.tokenizer

device = "cuda"
model.eval()
model.to(device)

seq = "M#EvVpQpL#VyQdYaKv" # Here "#" represents lower plDDT regions (plddt < 70)

# Predict the effect of mutating the 3rd amino acid to A
mut_info = "V3A"
mut_value = model.predict_mut(seq, mut_info)
print(mut_value)

# Predict mutational effect of combinatorial mutations, e.g. mutating the 3rd amino acid to A and the 4th amino acid to M
mut_info = "V3A:Q4M"
mut_value = model.predict_mut(seq, mut_info)
print(mut_value)

# Predict all effects of mutations at 3rd position
mut_pos = 3
mut_dict = model.predict_pos_mut(seq, mut_pos)
print(mut_dict)

# Predict probabilities of all amino acids at 3rd position
mut_pos = 3
mut_dict = model.predict_pos_prob(seq, mut_pos)
print(mut_dict)
```

## Get protein embeddings
If you want to generate protein embeddings, you could refer to the following code. The embeddings are the average of
the hidden states of the last layer.
<!-- <font color=red>Note frozen SaProt supports SA sequence embeddings but not AA sequence embeddings.</font> -->
```python
from model.saprot.base import SaprotBaseModel
from transformers import EsmTokenizer


config = {
    "task": "base",
    "config_path": "/your/path/to/SaProt_650M_AF2", # Note this is the directory path of SaProt, not the ".pt" file
    "load_pretrained": True,
}

model = SaprotBaseModel(**config)
tokenizer = EsmTokenizer.from_pretrained(config["config_path"])

device = "cuda"
model.to(device)

seq = "M#EvVpQpL#VyQdYaKv" # Here "#" represents lower plDDT regions (plddt < 70)
tokens = tokenizer.tokenize(seq)
print(tokens)

inputs = tokenizer(seq, return_tensors="pt")
inputs = {k: v.to(device) for k, v in inputs.items()}

embeddings = model.get_hidden_states(inputs, reduction="mean")
print(embeddings[0].shape)
```
