Abstract
CD133 (prominin-1) is a transmembrane glycoprotein expressed at the surface of normal and cancer stem cells, progenitor cells, rod photoreceptor cells, and a variety of epithelial cells. Although CD133 is widely used as a marker of various somatic and putative cancer stem cells, its contribution to fundamental properties of stem cells such as self-renewal and differentiation remains unknown. CD133 contains a short C-terminal cytoplasmic domain with five tyrosine residues, including a consensus tyrosine phosphorylation site that has not yet been investigated. In this study, we show that CD133 is phosphorylated in human medulloblastoma D283 and Daoy cells, in a Src family kinase-dependent manner. The cytoplasmic domain of CD133 is tyrosine phosphorylated in Daoy cells overexpressing Src and Fyn tyrosine kinases, as well as in vitro using recombinant proteins. Deletion of the C-terminal cytoplasmic domain of CD133 considerably reduced its phosphorylation by Src. To identify the tyrosine phosphorylation sites in CD133, we used matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization quadrupole time-of-flight (MALDI Q-TOF) and liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Analysis of tyrosine-phosphorylated CD133 by mass spectrometry and site-directed mutagenesis identified tyrosine-828 and the nonconsensus tyrosine-852 as the major tyrosine phosphorylation sites both in vitro and in intact cells. Identification of CD133 as a substrate for Src-family tyrosine kinases suggests that the cytoplasmic domain of CD133 might play an important role in the regulation of its functions.

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
