Abstract
YB-1 is a multifunctional protein involved in the regulation of transcription, translation, mRNA splicing and probably DNA repair. It contains a conserved cold shock domain and it binds strongly to inverted CCAAT box of different promoters. In this study, we have found that purified YB-1 oligomerizes readily in solutions to form trimers, hexamers and oligomers of 12 molecules. The presence of ATP changed the conformation of YB-1 in such a way that only dimers were detected by gel filtration analyses. Purified YB-1 can separate different DNA duplexes containing blunt ends, 5' or 3' recessed ends, or forked structures. This strand separation activity is increased on cisplatin-modified DNA or with duplex molecules containing mismatches. In addition to its exonuclease activity, YB-1 exhibits endonucleolytic activities in vitro. Finally, YB-1 affinity chromatography experiments have indicated that in addition to prespliceosome factors like nucleolin and ALY, YB-1 binds the DNA repair proteins MSH2, DNA polymerase delta, Ku80 and WRN proteins in vitro. Furthermore, immunofluorescence studies have shown that YB-1 re-localizes from the cytoplasm to nuclear areas containing either Ku80 or MSH2 proteins in human 293 embryonic kidney cells. These results suggest that YB-1 is involved in base excision and mismatch repair pathways.

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 it
