Abstract
Cellular functions are performed and regulated at a molecular level by the coordinated action of intricate protein assemblies, and hence the study of protein folding, structure, and interactions is vital to the appreciation and understanding of complex biological problems. In the past decade, continued development of chemical cross-linking methodologies combined with mass spectrometry has seen this approach develop to enable detailed structural information to be elucidated for protein assemblies often intractable by traditional structural biology methods. In this review article, we describe recent advances in reagent design, cross-linking protocols, mass spectrometric analysis, and incorporation of cross-linking constraints into structural models, which are contributing to overcoming the intrinsic challenges of the cross-linking method. We also highlight pioneering applications of chemical cross-linking mass spectrometry approaches to the study of structure and function of protein assemblies.

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
