# ESMC

This set of model weights was released with the GitHub-compatible `esm` package format. The models here are kept for backwards compatibility, but **we recommend you use the HuggingFace-compatible model weights at [biohub/ESMC-6B](https://huggingface.co/biohub/ESMC-6B)** (or [biohub/ESMC-300M](https://huggingface.co/biohub/ESMC-300M) / [biohub/ESMC-600M](https://huggingface.co/biohub/ESMC-600M)) instead.
