How the study works
Every coin launched on Virus Research is bound to a virus species. The research worker fetches a real window of that species' reference genome from NCBI and computes a reproducible set of sequence statistics: the research card. No model is required for the baseline; the Viro1 genomic language models from Living Models can be plugged in for learned signal (research licence only).
- 1 · SpeciesChosen at launch (or detected from the token metadata: a
speciesattribute, a scientific name or a common name). 27 catalogued virus species, every taxid verified against NCBI Taxonomy. - 2 · Reference sequenceNCBI E-utilities: the RefSeq nuclear chromosomes (NC_) of the species including its subspecies and cultivar groups. By default a window of 8,191 bases one third into the longest chromosome, to avoid telomeres; an explicit region or a FASTA upload can be used instead.
- 3 · AnalysisThe
kmerbackend computes composition, CpG, entropy, GC profile, ORFs and low-complexity windows in a fraction of a second. The optionalviro1backend adds embeddings and masked pseudo-likelihood. - 4 · CardStored with the sequence hash and the first 600 bases, rendered in 2D and 3D, exportable as Markdown or JSON through the API, and comparable with any other virus or species.

the glossary of the research cardGC content
Share of guanine and cytosine among the bases. Virus genomes range from ~33% (influenza) to ~56% (herpesviruses); gene-rich regions tend to be GC-richer than repeats.
CpG observed/expected
How often the dinucleotide CG appears versus what the C and G frequencies predict. Values well below 1 indicate CpG depletion by methylation; near 1 means no depletion.
k-mer entropy
Shannon entropy in bits of the distribution of words of length k (1, 2, 3 and 6). Higher is more diverse sequence; low values point to repeats and low complexity.
GC profile
GC content in 32 consecutive windows along the sequence, shown as a line and as the 3D relief. Peaks and dips hint at isochores, genes and repeats.
Open reading frames (ORFs)
Stretches from an ATG start codon to a stop codon on either strand, 90 nt or longer. The longest ones are candidates for protein-coding segments.
Low complexity
64-base windows whose single-base entropy falls under 1.2 bits: poly-A tracts, microsatellites and similar repeats.
Shared k-mers and Jaccard
In comparisons, exact 12-mers present in both sequences. A high Jaccard points to homology or shared repeats; cosine similarity at k≤4 only reflects composition.
Viro1 signal
With model access: mean embedding, its norm and the masked pseudo-negative-log-likelihood of equally spaced positions. Lower means the model finds the sequence more expected.
Sources and provenance
- Sequences: NCBI RefSeq, fetched live through E-utilities (
esearch,esummary,efetch); every card records the accession, coordinates and the SHA-256 of the sequence. - Taxonomy: NCBI Taxonomy; renamed species keep their old name as a common name (e.g. Pisum sativum → Lathyrus oleraceus).
- On-chain data: Solana mainnet via RPC, decoded from the official Meteora DBC IDL and the pump.fun program layouts, verified against real transactions.
- Models: Viro1-S/M/L by Living Models (Hugging Face, gated, non-commercial research licence). The default backend does not use them.
