Effect of protease mutations on the production of xylanases in Streptomyces lividans
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Three protease mutants--7 (tap-), 12 (tap-, ssp-), and 17 (multiple mutations)--of Streptomyces lividans were tested for their influence on protein secretion. Streptomyces lividans grown in xylan secretes 3 xylanases (A, B, and C). Xylanases A (XlnA) and B (XlnB) are secreted by the Sec pathway, whereas xylanase C (XlnC) is secreted by the Tat pathway. The production of XlnA and XlnC was affected in the mutants, suggesting that the mutations interfered with both Sec- and Tat-secretion systems. However, the processing rate for the Sec and Tat precursor was similar to the wild-type strain, indicating that the mutations had no direct effect on secretion. Streptomyces lividans naturally produced 2 forms of XlnB: XlnB1, which contains the catalytic and the xylan-binding domains, and XlnB2, which contains the catalytic domain only. There was no change from the wild-type strain in the ratio of XlnB1/XlnB2 produced by the mutants, indicating that these proteases are not involved in this process. Although XlnA1, partially truncated in its xylan-binding domain, was rapidly degraded to its catalytic domain (XlnA2) in the wild-type strain, the rate of conversion was reduced in the 3 mutants, indicating that the proteases participated to some extent in this proteolytic process.

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
