This is the official repository for the paper Enzyme Function Prediction using Contrastive Learning. CLEAN, Contrastive Learning enabled Enzyme ANnotation, is a machine learning algorithm to assign Enzyme Commission (EC) number with better accuracy, reliability, and sensitivity than all existing computational tools.
To use CLEAN to inference the EC number for any amino acid sequence, we included the pretrained weights for both the 70% and 100% identity clustering split of SwissProt (expertly reviewed portion of the UniProt, total ~220k training data). User can follow the instruction below on how to install and inference with CLEAN. We also provide full training scripts.
Python >= 3.6; PyTorch >= 1.11.0; CUDA >= 10.1
Manuscript result was obtained using Python 3.10.4; PyTorch 1.11.0; CUDA 11.3; fair-esm 1.0.2
We included pretrained weights for 70% and 100% splits, along with pre-evaluated embeddings for each EC cluster centers for fastest inference. Download, unzip these files and move to data/pretrained.

- Retrive all embedding for all SwissProt sequences (slow, but required for training)
- Retrive only embeddings for enzymes to be inferenced (fast)
For option 1, run following commands in python:
python
>>> from CLEAN.utils import *
>>> ensure_dirs("data/esm_data")
>>> ensure_dirs("data/pretrained")
>>> csv_to_fasta("data/split100.csv", "data/split100.fasta")
>>> retrive_esm1b_embedding("split100")For option 2, move the fasta file (for example, test.fasta) to be inferred to /data, and run following commands :
python
>>> from CLEAN.utils import *
>>> ensure_dirs("data/esm_data")
>>> ensure_dirs("data/pretrained")
>>> retrive_esm1b_embedding("test")We offer two EC-calling inference algorithms: max-separation and p-value. max-separation consistently gives better precision and recall, but results from p-value can be controlled by adjusting p_value as a hyperparameter.
Before inference, AA sequences to be inferred are stored in a CSV file, with the same format as the split100.csv. The field EC number in the csv file can be any EC number if unknow, but please ignore the printed evaluation metrics in this case. The esm-1b embeddings of the infered sequences need to be pre-computed using the following commands (using new.csv as an example):
python
>>> from CLEAN.utils import *
>>> csv_to_fasta("data/new.csv", "data/new.fasta")
>>> retrive_esm1b_embedding("new")For inferencing using p-value, there are two hyperparameter: nk_random and p_value. nk_random is the number of randomly chosen enzymes (in thousands) from the training set used for calculating background distances (distances to incorrect EC numbers) for each EC number. p-value is the threshould for a EC number to be considered significant relative to the backgound distances. The following commands show how to get EC prediction results from p-value:
python
>>> from CLEAN.infer import infer_pvalue
>>> train_data = "split100"
>>> test_data = "new"
>>> infer_pvalue(train_data, test_data, p_value=1e-5, nk_random=20,
report_metrics=True, pretrained=True)This should produce similar results (depending on the version of ESM-1b weights):
The embedding sizes for train and test: torch.Size([241025, 128]) torch.Size([392, 128])
Calculating eval distance map, between 392 test ids and 5242 train EC cluster centers
############ EC calling results using random chosen 20k samples ############
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>> total samples: 392 | total ec: 177
>>> precision: 0.558 | recall: 0.477 | F1: 0.482 | AUC: 0.737
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For inferencing using max-separation, there are no hyperparameters to tune: it's a greedy approach that prioritizes EC numbers that have the maximum separation to other EC numbers in terms of the pairwise distance to the query sequence. max-separation gives a deterministic prediction and usually outperforms p-value in turns of precision and recall. Because this algorithm does not need to sample from the training set, it is much faster than p-value. The following commands show how to get EC predicition results from max-separation:
python
>>> from CLEAN.infer import infer_maxsep
>>> train_data = "split100"
>>> test_data = "new"
>>> infer_maxsep(train_data, test_data, report_metrics=True, pretrained=True)This should produce similar results (depending on the version of ESM-1b weights):

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>>> total samples: 392 | total ec: 177
>>> precision: 0.596 | recall: 0.479 | F1: 0.497 | AUC: 0.739
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The prediction results are store in the folder results/ with file name = test_data + infer_algo (for example, new_maxsep.csv). An example output would be:
Q9RYA6,EC:5.1.1.20/7.4553
O24527,EC:2.7.11.1/5.8561
Q5TZ07,EC:3.6.1.43/8.0610,EC:3.1.3.4/8.0627,EC:3.1.3.27/8.0728
Where the first column (Q9RYA6) is the id of the enzyme, second column (EC:5.1.1.20/7.4553) is the predicted EC number and pairwise distance between cluster center of 5.1.1.20 and Q9RYA6. Note in the case of enzyme Q5TZ07, three enzyme functions are predicted.
In addition to inferencing with pretrained weights for 70% and 100% splits, we also support inferencing with user-trained models. For example, if a model is trained and saved as data/model/split10_triplet.pth, inferencing with max-separation:
from CLEAN.infer import *
infer_maxsep("split10", "new", report_metrics=True,
pretrained=False, model_name="split10_triplet")In addition to inferencing a csv file with Entry, EC number and Sequence, we also allow inferencing on just a single FASTA file. For example, there is a simple FASTA file data/query.fasta:

Inference through the following command in terminal:
python CLEAN_infer_fasta.py --fasta_data query
And the max-separation prediction will be stored in results/query_maxsep.csv.
We provide the scripts for CLEAN models with both triplet margin and Supcon-Hard losses. Supcon-Hard Loss samples multiple positives and negatives and performs better than Triplet Margin Loss small training datasets, however it takes longer time to train.
triplet margin loss is given as:
where SupCon-Hard loss is given as:
where a fixed number of positives are sampled from the same EC class as the anchor, and a fixed number of negatives are hard-mined.
To speed up training, the pair-wise distance matrix and embedding matrix need to be pre-computed. This only needs to be done ONCE for every training file!. Run following commands:
python
>>> train_file = "split10"
>>> compute_esm_distance(train_file)This will save the two matrices (split10.pkl and split10_esm.pkl) in folder location /data/distance_map.
To train a CLEAN model with triplet margin loss, and take 10% split as an example, simply run:
python ./train-triplet.py --training_data split10 --model_name split10_triplet --epoch 2500
The model weight is saved as /data/model/split10_triplet.pth and to inference with it, see section 2.3.
We recommand different epoch numbers for training different splits:
- 10% split: epoch = 2000
- 30% split: epoch = 2500
- 50% split: epoch = 3500
- 70% split: epoch = 5000
- 100% split: epoch = 7000
To train a CLEAN model with SupCon-Hard loss, and take 10% split as an example, run:
python ./train-supconH.py --training_data split10 --model_name split10_supconH --epoch 1500 --n_pos 9 --n_neg 30 -T 0.1
We fixed the number of positive to be 9, the number of positive to be 30 and temperature to be 0.1 in all of our experiments. We recommand using 25% less number of epochs compared to triplet margin loss on the same training data.
Also notice that the outputing embedding for SupCon-Hard is out_dim=256 while for triplet margin is out_dim=128. To infer with a CLEAN-supconH model, see notes in src/CLEAN/infer.py about rebuilding CLEAN.
