The soluble metal-binding domain of the copper transporter ATP7B binds and detoxifies cisplatin
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Wilson disease ATPase (ATP7B) has been implicated in the resistance of cancer cells to cisplatin. Using a simple in vivo assay in bacterial culture, in the present study we demonstrate that ATP7B can confer resistance to cisplatin by sequestering the drug in its N-terminal metal-binding domain without active drug extrusion from the cell. Expression of a protein fragment containing four N-terminal MBRs (metal-binding repeats) of ATP7B (MBR1-4) protects cells from the toxic effects of cisplatin. One MBR1-4 molecule binds up to three cisplatin molecules at the copper-binding sites in the MBRs. The findings of the present study suggest that suppressing enzymatic activity of ATP7B may not be an effective way of combating cisplatin resistance. Rather, the efforts should be directed at preventing cisplatin binding to the protein.

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.
