Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Summary: AcePrimer is an internet-accessed application based on CGI/Perl programming that designs PCR primers to search for deletion alleles in Caenorhabditis elegans gene knockout experiments and uses electronic PCR to search the entire genomic DNA sequence for potential false priming or multiple PCR amplification targets. Features such as the ability to target specific exons with the ‘poison primer’ approach and evaluation of primers with electronic PCR provide a flexible, web-based approach to design effective primers whilst minimizing the need for empirical optimization of PCR experiments. Availability: Web access to this program is provided at http://elegans.bcgsc.bc.ca/gko/aceprimer.shtml. * To whom correspondence should be addressed.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

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.
