<i>Xenopus</i> transcription factor IIIA and the 5S nucleosome: development of a useful in vitro system
Bibliographic record
Abstract
5S RNA genes in Xenopus are regulated during development via a complex interplay between assembly of repressive chromatin structures and productive transcription complexes. Interestingly, 5S genes have been found to harbor powerful nucleosome positioning elements and therefore have become an important model system for reconstitution of eukaryotic genes into nucleosomes in vitro. Moreover, the structure of the primary factor initiating transcription of 5S DNA, transcription factor IIIA, has been extensively characterized. This has allowed for numerous studies of the effect of nucleosome assembly and histone modifications on the DNA binding activity of a transcription factor in vitro. For example, linker histones bind 5S nucleosomes and repress TFIIIA binding in vitro in a similar manner to that observed in vivo. In addition, TFIIIA binding to nucleosomes assembled with 5S DNA is stimulated by acetylation or removal of the core histone tail domains. Here we review the development of the Xenopus 5S in vitro system and discuss recent results highlighting new aspects of transcription factor - nucleosome interactions,

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, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
