Mammalian reovirus core protein µ2 initiates at the first start codon and is acetylated
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Mammalian reovirus is an enteric virus that contains a double-stranded RNA genome. The genome consists of ten RNA segments that encode eight structural and three non-structural proteins. The structural proteins form a double-layered structure. The innermost layer, called the core, consists of five proteins (lambda1, lambda2, lambda3, micro 2, and sigma2). Protein lambda3 is the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) and micro 2 is thought to be an RdRp cofactor. Translation of most reovirus proteins is known to commence at the first start codon. However, the translation initiation site of the viral core protein micro 2, encoded by the M1 RNA segment, has been in dispute. Although the theoretical molecular weight of micro 2 is 83 267 Da the actual molecular weight is unknown because micro 2 runs aberrantly in SDS-PAGE and has resisted characterization by Edman degradation, indicating that the amino terminus is post-translationally modified. In this study, we used proteolysis coupled with MALDI-Qq-TOFMS to determine that translation of micro 2 initiates at the first AUG codon, that its actual molecular weight approximates the theoretical value of 83 kDa, that the amino terminal methionine residue is removed, and that the next amino acid (alanine) is post-translationally acetylated.

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.
