Isolation of the salmonid rhamnose‐binding lectin STL2 from spores of the microsporidian fish parasite <i>Loma salmonae</i>
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The microsporidian parasite, Loma salmonae, is the causative agent of gill disease in both wild and netpen-reared salmonids worldwide. In this paper we report the finding of a rhamnose-binding lectin from steelhead trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, which was found bound in high concentration to the surface coat of L. salmonae spores. SDS-PAGE, immunoblot, N-terminal sequencing and mass spectrometric analyses were used to determine that the dominant 24 kDa protein lectin observed on SDS-PAGE analysis of intact spore extracts is the O. tshawytscha variant of the previously identified rhamnose-binding lectin STL2 from rainbow trout, O. mykiss. Although the physiological role of these lectins has not been clearly delineated, they have been implicated in a variety of functions, including inhibition of pathogenic bacteria by opsonization and macrophage-mediated tumour lysis.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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.
