Abstract
Deoxyribonuclease I (DNase I) binds right-handed DNA duplex via a minor groove and the backbone phosphate group with no contact to the major groove. It hydrolyses double-stranded DNA predominantly by a single-stranded nicking mechanism under physiological conditions, in the presence of divalent Mg and Ca cations. Even though DNase-RNA interaction was observed, less is known about the protein-RNA binding mode and the effect of such complexation on both protein and RNA conformations. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of DNase I-tRNA interaction on tRNA and protein conformations. The interaction of DNase I with tRNA is monitored under physiological conditions, in the absence of Mg2+, using constant DNA concentration of 12.5 mM (phosphate) and various protein contents (10 microM to 250 microM). FTIR, UV-visible, and CD spectroscopic methods were used to analyze the protein binding mode, the binding constant, and the effects of polynucleotide-enzyme interaction on both tRNA and protein conformations. Spectroscopic evidence showed major DNase-PO2 and minor groove interactions with overall binding constant of K = 2.1 (+/-0.7) x 10(4) M(-1). The DNase I-tRNA interaction alters protein secondary structure with major reduction of the alpha-helix, and increases the random coil, beta-anti and turn structures, while tRNA remains in the A-conformation. No digestion of tRNA by DNase I was observed in the protein-tRNA complexes.

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.
