Abstract
Reversible phosphorylation has been implicated in many developmental processes. Dephosphorylation is mediated by several families of phosphatases, including type 1 serine/threonine phosphatases (protein phosphatase-1 or PP1). The loss of the murine Ppp1cc gene causes male infertility as a result of impaired spermatogenesis. Ppp1cc encodes two splice isoforms, PPP1CC1 and PPP1CC2, with the latter being the most abundant isoform in the testis. However, the details of PPP1CC2's involvement in spermatogenesis are still unknown. As a phosphatase has been removed from the mutant mouse, a search for hyperphosphorylated proteins in the mutant testis may reveal the direct downstream targets of PPP1CC2. Using a whole tissue proteomics approach to identify testis-specific dephosphorylation targets of PPP1CC2, we found that two-dimensional electrophoresis identified 10 potential targets in the Ppp1cc null testis several of which are factors known to be important for spermatogenesis, such as HSPA2. Another potential target, tubulin, was found to be misregulated during Ppp1cc(-/-) spermatogenesis, disrupting manchette development. This work represents the first survey of the testicular phosphoproteome under pathological conditions.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
