Abstract
Transcriptional regulation of many immune responsive genes is under the control of the transcription factor NF-kappaB. This factor is found in cells as a dimer which can contain any two members of the Rel family of proteins (p50, p65, p52, c-Rel, and RelB). The different dimers show distinct preferences for DNA-binding site sequences. To understand the relationship between the DNA binding properties of the dimer forms and transcriptional activation, the physical properties of the complexes of p50 and p65 with DNA have been analyzed. Comparison of apparent DNA binding affinity showed differences in selectivity of DNA-binding site sequence. The ionic strength dependence of apparent binding affinity has shown that the number of ionic interactions in the protein-DNA complex depends on the DNA-binding site sequence and the dimer form, which are consistent with changes in the structure of the protein-DNA complex. Using a fluorescent technique to measure DNA structure changes, protein binding does not appear to alter the structure of the DNA-binding site within the limits of detection. These results are consistent with a change in protein structure that may result in activation differences due to alternative interactions with other transcription proteins.

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
