Effect of Temperature on the Structure of Trout Troponin C
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Adaptation for life at different temperatures can cause changes in many aspects of an organism. One example is the expression of different protein isoforms in species adapted to different temperatures. The calcium regulatory protein cardiac troponin C (cTnC), from rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss), is a good model for studying temperature effects, both because of its low physiological temperature and because mammalian cTnC, extensively studied at higher temperatures, can be used for comparison. We determined the structure and studied the backbone dynamics of the regulatory domain of trout cardiac troponin C (ScNTnC) with one Ca(2+) bound at 7 and 30 degrees C, using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR). The overall fold of the regulatory domain of trout cTnC at both temperatures is similar to the regulatory domain of mammalian (human, bovine, and porcine isoform) cTnC bound to one Ca(2+). By comparing the trout structures at the two temperatures, we identify differences between the positions of the helices flanking the calcium binding loops, and the overall structure at 7 degrees C is more compact than that at 30 degrees C. The structure at 7 degrees C is more similar to the mammalian cTnC, which was determined at 30 degrees C, indicating that they have the same conformation at their respective physiological temperatures. The dynamic properties of the regulatory domain of trout cTnC are similar at the two temperatures that were used in these studies.

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.
