Characterization of the Interaction between P143 and LEF-3 from Two Different Baculovirus Species: <i>Choristoneura fumiferana</i> Nucleopolyhedrovirus LEF-3 Can Complement <i>Autographa californica</i> Nucleopolyhedrovirus LEF-3 in Supporting DNA Replication
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The baculovirus protein P143 is essential for viral DNA replication in vivo, likely as a DNA helicase. We have demonstrated that another viral protein, LEF-3, first described as a single-stranded DNA binding protein, is required for transporting P143 into the nuclei of insect cells. Both of these proteins, along with several other early viral proteins, are also essential for DNA replication in transient assays. We now describe the identification, nucleotide sequences, and transcription patterns of the Choristoneura fumiferana nucleopolyhedrovirus (CfMNPV) homologues of p143 and lef-3 and demonstrate that CfMNPV LEF-3 is also responsible for P143 localization to the nucleus. We predicted that the interaction between P143 and LEF-3 might be critical for cross-species complementation of DNA replication. Support for this hypothesis was generated by substitution of heterologous P143 and LEF-3 between two different baculovirus species, Autographa californica nucleopolyhedrovirus and CfMNPV, in transient DNA replication assays. The results suggest that the P143-LEF-3 complex is an important baculovirus replication factor.

Direct model labels (unvalidated)
Per-model category and study-design labels from the labeling rounds. They are machine output, unvalidated, and the disagreement between models ships as data. No study design here is MEDLINE-validated yet.

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, unvalidatedLabeled directly by 2 models reading the full record.
