Engineered metalloregulation of azide binding affinity and reduction potential of horse heart myoglobin
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Metal ion binding to a previously reported variant of horse heart myoglobin (Lys45Glu/Lys63Glu) with a metal ion binding site on the surface of the protein that is adjacent to the haem binding site has been shown to influence ligand binding and electrochemical properties of the protein. For example, the K(d) (μM) for binding of azide to this variant decreases from 277 ± 9 to 32 ± 3 following addition of a saturating concentration of Mn(2+) (the value for the wild-type protein under the same conditions is 26 ± 1). Similarly, the midpoint reduction potential E(m) (mV vs. standard hydrogen electrode) increases from 9 to 40 in the presence of a saturating concentration of Mn(2+) (the value for the wild-type protein under the same conditions is 45 ± 2). These results demonstrate the potential value of engineered metal ion binding sites as a means of regulating the functional properties of even simple haem proteins.

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.
