The Molecular Basis for Cyclopiazonic Acid Inhibition of the Sarcoplasmic Reticulum Calcium Pump
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase is essential for calcium reuptake in the muscle contraction-relaxation cycle. Here we present structures of a calcium-free state with bound cyclopiazonic acid (CPA) and magnesium fluoride at 2.65 A resolution and a calcium-free state with bound CPA and ADP at 3.4A resolution. In both structures, CPA occupies the calcium access channel delimited by transmembrane segments M1-M4. Inhibition of Ca(2+)-ATPase is stabilized by a polar pocket that surrounds the tetramic acid of CPA and a hydrophobic platform that cradles the inhibitor. The calcium pump residues involved include Gln(56), Leu(61), Val(62), and Asn(101). We conclude that CPA inhibits the calcium pump by blocking the calcium access channel and immobilizing a subset of transmembrane helices. In the E2(CPA) structure, ADP is bound in a distinct orientation within the nucleotide binding pocket. The adenine ring is sandwiched between Arg(489) of the nucleotide-binding domain and Arg(678) of the phosphorylation domain. This mode of binding conforms to an adenine recognition motif commonly found in ATP-dependent proteins.

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.
