OpenGenome2 is a database of nearly 9 trillion base pairs of curated DNA from across all domains of life. Collected from diverse species and public data sources, OpenGenome2 was used to train Evo 2 models. Please refer to the [Evo 2 preprint](https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.02.18.638918v1) or [github repository](https://github.com/ArcInstitute/evo2) for further details and usage examples.
We provide OpenGenome2 in two formats, the dataset is organized into two main directories to reflect this:
- **fasta** which contain the DNA sequences
- **jsonl** which include the specific preprocessed sequences used for Evo 2 pretraining, such as adding special tokens and phylogenetic tags
This dataset was specifically curated and preprocessed for training the Evo 2 family of genomic language models and can be used for training models or bioinformatics.
## Dataset Statistics
- **Total size**: 8.8 trillion base pairs
- **Coverage**: All domains of life (Bacteria, Archaea, Eukaryota, Viruses)
- **Formats available**: FASTA, JSONL
## Data Sources
The dataset combines sequences from various public databases and repositories:
- **Prokaryotic genomes**: GTDBv220, IMG/PR
- **Metagenomics**: MGD DB
- **Viral sequences**: IMG/VR
- **Eukaryotic data**: NCBI, Ensembl (from which we identified mRNAs, genomic windows)
- **Eukaryotic elements**: Eukaryotic Promoter Database new (EPDnew)
- **RNA sequences**: RNAcentral, Rfam
- **Organellar genomes**: Various organelles
## Training Data Composition
Evo 2 uses a two stage to train on OpenGenome2, first pretraining on a focused dataset at shorter sequence length and then longer sequence length with more full genomes and special tags.
