Structural analysis of a putative family 32 carbohydrate-binding module from the<i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i>enzyme EndoD
Bibliographic record
Abstract
EndoD is an architecturally complex endo-β-1,4-N-acetylglucosamidase from Streptococcus pneumoniae that cleaves the chitobiose core of N-linked glycans and contributes to pneumococcal virulence. Although the glycoside hydrolase family 85 catalytic module has been structurally and functionally characterized, nothing is known about the ancillary modules and how they contribute to the overall function of the enzyme. Presented here is the 2.0 Å resolution structure of a family 32 carbohydrate-binding module of EndoD, SpCBM32, solved by single-wavelength anomalous dispersion. The putative binding site of this protein is a charge-neutral relatively flat region on the protein surface that contains one prominently exposed tryptophan residue that extends into the solvent. These topographical features are discussed in the biological context of EndoD activity and a hypothesis is made about the complex structure of its potential carbohydrate ligand.

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.
