NMR structure of the <i>Escherichia coli</i> protein YacG: A novel sequence motif in the zinc‐finger family of proteins
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Introduction. We have used nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to determine the solution structure of YacG (gi7466984), a small zinc-binding protein encoded by the Escherichia coli yacG gene. YacG is a conserved hypothetical protein (COG 3024) with homologs in various bacterial species (Fig. A structure similarity search using Dali 1 did not reveal any structurally similar proteins (Z score all 2). However, the protein has characteristic features of a zinc finger including two antiparallel -strands, an -helix, and a tetrahedral Zn 2 -binding site. The consensus motif for the Cys residues (-C-X 2 -C-X 15 -C-X 3 -C-) is invariant among the YacG homologs but is not present in any other zinc-binding proteins with known structures.

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.
