Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The sequence of human myoglobin (Mb) is similar to that of other species except for a unique cysteine at position 110 (Cys(110)). Adding hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) to human Mb affords Trp(14)-peroxyl, Tyr(103)-phenoxyl, and Cys(110)-thiyl radicals and coupling of Cys(110)-thiyl radicals yields a homodimer through intermolecular disulfide bond formation (Witting, P. K., Douglas, D. J., and Mauk, A. G. (2000) J. Biol. Chem. 275, 20391-20398). Treating a solution of wild type Mb and H(2)O(2) with 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide (DMPO) at DMPO:protein </= 10 mol/mol yields DMPO-Cys(110) adducts as determined by EPR. At DMPO:protein ratios (25-50 mol/mol), both DMPO-Tyr(103) and DMPO-Cys(110) adducts were detected, whereas at DMPO:protein >/= 100 mol/mol only DMPO-Tyr(103) radicals were present. The DMPO-dependent decrease in DMPO-Cys(110) was matched by a near 1:1 stoichiometric increase in DMPO-Tyr(103). In contrast, reaction of the Y103F human Mb with H(2)O(2) gave no DMPO-Cys(110) at DMPO:protein </= 10 mol/mol, and only trace DMPO-Cys(110) at DMPO:protein >/= 100 mol/mol (i.e. conditions that consistently gave DMPO-Tyr(103) in the case of wild type Mb). No detectable homodimer was formed by incubation of the Y103F variant with H(2)O(2). However, the homodimer was detected in a mixture of both the Y103F and C110A variants of human Mb upon treatment with H(2)O(2) (C110A:Y103F:H(2)O(2) 2:1:5 mol/mol/mol); the yield of this homodimer increased with increasing ratios of C110A:Y103F. Together, these data suggest that addition of H(2)O(2) to human Mb can produce Cys(110)-thiyl radicals through an intermolecular electron transfer reaction from Cys(110) to a Tyr(103)-phenoxyl radical.

Not 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.
