Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The ultrastructure of fibrous long spacing (FLS) collagen fibrils has been investigated by performing both atomic force microscopy (AFM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) on exactly the same area of FLS collagen fibril samples. These FLS collagen fibrils were formed in vitro from type I collagen and alpha1-acid glycoprotein (AAG) solutions. On the basis of the correlated AFM and TEM images obtained before and after negative staining, the periodic dark bands observed in TEM images along the longitudinal axis of the FLS collagen fibril correspond directly to periodic protrusions seen by AFM. This observation is in agreement with the original surmise made by Gross, Highberger, and Schmitt (Gross J, Highberger JH, Schmitt FO, Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 1954;40:679-688) that the major repeating dark bands of FLS collagen fibrils observed under TEM are thick relative to the interband region. Although these results do not refute the idea of negative stain penetration into gap regions proposed by Hodge and Petruska (Petruska JA, Hodge AJ. Aspects of protein structure. Ramachandran GN, editor. New York: Academic Press; 1963. p. 289-300), there is no need to invoke the presence of gap regions to explain the periodic dark bands observed in TEM images of FLS collagen fibrils.

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
