Expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of<i>Escherichia coli</i>5′-methylthioadenosine/<i>S</i>-adenosylhomocysteine nucleosidase
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A recombinant form of Escherichia coli 5'-methylthioadenosine/S-adenosylhomocysteine nucleosidase (E.C. 3.2.2.9) has been purified to homogeneity and crystallized using the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion technique. While several different crystallization conditions were obtained, only one set of conditions yielded crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction analysis. These crystals grow as diamond-shaped wedges, with unit-cell parameters a = 50.92, b = 133.99, c = 70.88 A, alpha = beta = gamma = 90 degrees. The crystals belong to space group P2(1)2(1)2 and diffract to a minimum d spacing of 2.3 A on a MAR345 image plate with a Rigaku RU-200 rotating-anode X-ray generator. On the basis of density calculations, two monomers are predicted per asymmetric unit (Matthews coefficient, V(M) = 2.37 A(3) Da(-1)), with a solvent content of 48%.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
