Nature of the genome of the saprophytic spirochete <i>Spirochaeta aurantia</i> and its ribosomal RNA operons
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Using restriction endonucleases DraI, AseI, and I-CeuI in conjunction with pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, we have shown that Spirochaeta aurantia M1 possesses a circular 3.98-Mb genome. This is the second largest spirochete chromosome yet analyzed. The observation that the latter enzyme cuts in 3 places suggests the presence of 3 copies of the large subunit (23S) rRNA gene (rrl), which was confirmed by Southern hybridizations. The complete sequence of 2 of the ribosomal RNA operons was determined, revealing that their structure resembled that of the typical member of the bacterial superkingdom: rrs (16S; 1561 bp), tRNA, rrl (23S; 2972 bp), and rrf (5S; 110 bp). The S. aurantia rrs-rrl intergenic regions, as with Treponema denticola, contain genes specifying a 73-nt tRNA(Ala) (anticodon TGC) and a 77-nt tRNA(Ile) (anticodon GAT).

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.
