The V510D Suppressor Mutation Stabilizes ΔF508-CFTR at the Cell Surface
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Deletion of Phe508 (DeltaF508) in the first nucleotide-binding domain (NBD1) of CFTR causes cystic fibrosis. The mutation severely reduces the stability and folding of the protein by disrupting interactions between NBD1 and the second transmembrane domain (TMD2). We found that replacement of Val510 with acidic residues (but not neutral or positive residues) promoted maturation of DeltaF508-CFTR with V510D more efficiently than V510E. Promotion of DeltaF508-CFTR maturation did not require NBD2 as introduction of V510D into a DeltaNBD2/DeltaF508-CFTR mutant restored maturation to levels similar to that of full-length protein. The V510D mutation increased the half-life of mature DeltaF508-CFTR at the cell surface by about 5-fold to resemble the half-life of wild-type CFTR. It was also observed that introduction of the V510R/R1070D mutations into DeltaF508-CFTR also promoted maturation whereas the V510D/R1070A mutations did not. We propose that the V510D mutation in NBD1 promotes maturation and stabilizes DeltaF508-CFTR at the cell surface through formation of a salt bridge with Arg1070 in TMD2.

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.
