Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The expression of winter flounder liver-type antifreeze protein (wflAFP) genes is tissue-specific and under seasonal and hormonal regulation. The only intron of the major wflAFP gene was demonstrated to be a liver-specific enhancer in both mammalian cell lines and flounder hepatocytes. Element B, the core enhancer sequence, was shown to interact specifically with a liver-enriched transcription factor, CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein alpha (C/EBPalpha), as well as a presumptive antifreeze enhancer-binding protein (AEP). In this study, the identity of the rat AEP ortholog was revealed via its DNA-protein interaction with element B. It is a helicase-domain-containing protein, 988 amino acids in length, and is homologous to mouse Smubp-2, hamster Rip-1 and human Smubp-2. The specific binding between element B and AEP was confirmed by South-Western analysis and gel retardation assays. Residues in element B important to this interaction were identified by methylation interference assays. Mutation on one of the residues disrupted the binding between element B and AEP and its enhancer activity was significantly reduced, suggesting that AEP is essential for the transactivation of the wflAFP gene intron. The rat AEP is ubiquitously expressed in various tissues, and the flounder homolog is present as shown by genomic Southern analysis. The potential role of AEP in regulating the flounder AFP gene expression is discussed.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
