Transcription Regulation Coupling of the Divergent<i>argG</i>and<i>metY</i>Promoters in<i>Escherichia coli</i>K-12
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The cAMP-catabolite activator protein (CAP) complex is a pleiotropic regulator that regulates a vast number of Escherichia coli genes, including those involved in carbon metabolism. We identified two new targets of this complex: argG, which encodes the arginosuccinate synthase involved in the arginine biosynthetic pathway, and metY, which encodes one of the two methionine tRNA initiators, tRNAf2Met. The cAMP-CAP complex activates argG transcription and inhibits metY transcription from the same DNA position. We also show that ArgR, the specific repressor of the arginine biosynthetic pathway, together with its arginine cofactor, acts on the regulation of metY mediated by CAP. The regulation of the two divergent promoters is thus simultaneously controlled not only by the cAMP-CAP complex, a global regulator, but also by a specific regulator of arginine metabolism, suggesting a previously unsuspected link between carbon metabolism and translation initiation.

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.
