Structural analysis of phosphatidyl choline lipids and glycerol precursors
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The structures and stabilities of the glycerol (G) and glycerol 3-phosphate (G3P) isomers have been calculated in the gas phase, using an ab initio density functional theory (DFT) method. The different conformational structures are shown to be at the origin of the various phospholipid conformers, except, obviously, for the alkyl chain torsions. The G3P conformations have been examined taking into account the experimental structures of the complexation sites in the glycerol kinase (GK) and glycerol 3-phosphate acyl transferase (G3PAT) enzymes, which correspond to the first and second steps of the “de novo” phospholipid biogenesis, respectively. The conformational analysis of the glycerophosphate skeleton is shown to determine most of the structural characteristics of the phosphatidyl choline lipids, which differ by the length of their diacyl chains, i.e., dilauroyl (DL), dimyristoyl (DM), and dipalmitoyl (DP) phosphatidylcholines (PC). Higher energy conformers with kinks in the acyl chains have been found, in preparation for molecular dynamics studies of the chain melting phase transformation.

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.
