| pretty_name: The Curated SAbDab |
| dataset_description: This dataset contains curated data from the SAbDab as of Mar 4, 2026. The SAbDab is a database of antibody structures including experimental details, antibody nomenclature, affinity data and sequence annotations. Additional datasets include a ‘in_nr_set’ that was assembled by querying SAbDab with Max. sequence identity 90% and ‘curated_quality_dataset’ that was assembled by querying SAbDab with Max. sequence identity 90%, bound structures, resolution below 4.0 Å. We also performed multivariate stratification on "antigen_type", "heavy_species", "method", "scfv", "engineered", "light_ctype", "in_nr_set", "curated_quality_dataset" to achieve an 80/10/10 train/test/validation split |

| # ML Application Curated SAbDab |
|
|
| ## Quickstart Usage |
|
|
| ### Install HuggingFace Datasets package |
|
|
| Each subset can be loaded into python using the Huggingface [datasets](https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/index) library. |
| First, from the command line install the `datasets` library |
|
|
| $ pip install datasets |
| |
| Optionally set the cache directory, e.g. |
|
|
| $ HF_HOME=${HOME}/.cache/huggingface/ |
| $ export HF_HOME |
| |
| then, from within python load the datasets library |
|
|
| >>> import datasets |
| |
| ### Load model datasets |
| |
| To load structures from the entire `SAbDab` dataset, use `datasets.load_dataset(...)`: |
|
|
| >>> SAbDab= datasets.load_dataset("RosettaCommons/SAbDab") |
| Downloading readme: 7.87kB [00:00, 2.73MB/s] |
| Downloading data: 100%|█████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████| 15.7M/15.7M [00:01<00:00, 8.22MB/s] |
| Generating train split: 100%|████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████| 20700/20700 [00:00<00:00, 80378.32 examples/s] |
| |
| and the dataset is loaded as a `datasets.arrow_dataset.Dataset` |
|
|
| >>> SAbDab |
| DatasetDict({ |
| train: Dataset({ |
| features: ['pdb', 'Hchain', 'Lchain', 'model', 'antigen_chain', 'antigen_type', 'antigen_het_name', 'antigen_name', 'short_header', 'date', 'compound', 'organism', 'heavy_species', 'light_species', 'antigen_species', 'authors', 'resolution', 'method', 'r_free', 'r_factor', 'scfv', 'engineered', 'heavy_subclass', 'light_subclass', 'light_ctype', 'affinity', 'delta_g', 'affinity_method', 'temperature', 'pmid', 'abangle', 'annotation_H', 'annotation_L', 'imgt_H', 'imgt_L', 'sequence_raw', 'sequence_H', 'sequence_L', 'structure', 'structure_chothia', 'in_nr_set', 'curated_quality_dataset', 'split'], |
| num_rows: 20700 |
| }) |
| }) |
| |
| which is a column oriented format that can be accessed directly, converted in to a `pandas.DataFrame`, or `parquet` format, e.g. |
|
|
| >>> SAbDab.data.column('pdb') |
| >>> SAbDab.to_pandas() |
| >>> SAbDab.to_parquet("dataset.parquet") |
| |
