Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The human myoglobin (Mb) sequence is similar to other mammalian Mb sequences, except for a unique cysteine at position 110. Reaction of wild-type recombinant human Mb, the C110A variant of human Mb, or horse heart Mb with H(2)O(2) (protein/H(2)O(2) = 1:1.2 mol/mol) resulted in formation of tryptophan peroxyl (Trp-OO( small middle dot)) and tyrosine phenoxyl radicals as detected by EPR spectroscopy at 77 K. For wild-type human Mb, a second radical (g approximately 2. 036) was detected after decay of Trp-OO( small middle dot) that was not observed for the C110A variant or horse heart Mb. When the spin trap 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DMPO) was included in the reaction mixture at protein/DMPO ratios </=1:10 mol/mol, a DMPO adduct exhibiting broad absorptions was detected. Hyperfine couplings of this radical indicated a DMPO-thiyl radical. Incubation of wild-type human Mb with thiol-blocking reagents prior to reaction with peroxide inhibited DMPO adduct formation, whereas at protein/DMPO ratios >/=1:25 mol/mol, DMPO-tyrosyl radical adducts were detected. Mass spectrometry of wild-type human Mb following reaction with H(2)O(2) demonstrated the formation of a homodimer (mass of 34,107 +/- 5 atomic mass units) sensitive to reducing conditions. The human Mb C110A variant afforded no dimer under identical conditions. Together, these data indicate that reaction of wild-type human Mb and H(2)O(2) differs from the corresponding reaction of other myoglobin species by formation of thiyl radicals that lead to a homodimer through intermolecular disulfide bond formation.

Not 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.
