The cyanobacterial phytochrome Cph2 inhibits phototaxis towards blue light
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We analysed the effects of inactivation of the phytochrome genes cph1 and cph2 on the phototactic migration of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 under different light qualities. Motility towards white, green, red and far red light was not altered in several independently raised cph1, cph2 and cph1/cph2 double mutants. Blue light (lambda = 400-500 nm) did not induce motility in wild-type and cph1 mutant cells, whereas cph2 and cph1/cph2 double mutants moved towards the blue light. Inhibition of the photosynthetic electron transport by DCMU influenced the motility of cph2 mutants under blue light, but not under white, red and far red light. RNA blot hybridizations did not indicate an altered transcript accumulation of the pilin-encoding pilA1 gene under blue light. We propose that the Cph2 protein is part of a light-stimulated signal transduction chain inhibiting the movement of Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 cells towards blue light.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
