Nucleoside Transporter Proteins of Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Bibliographic record
Abstract
FUI1 and function unknown now 26 (FUN26) are proteins of uncertain function with sequence similarities to members of the uracil/allantoin permease and equilibrative nucleoside transporter families of transporter proteins, respectively. [(3)H]Uridine influx was eliminated by disruption of the gene encoding FUI1 (fui1) and restored by expression of FUI1 cDNA, whereas influx in transport-competent and fui1-negative yeast were unaffected, respectively, by disruption of the FUN26 gene or overexpression of FUN26 cDNA. FUI1 transported uridine with high affinity (K(m), 22 +/- 3 micrometer) and was unaffected or inhibited only partially by high concentrations (1 mm) of a variety of ribo- and deoxyribonucleosides or nucleobases. When FUN26 cDNA was expressed in oocytes of Xenopus laevis, inward fluxes of [(3)H]uridine, [(3)H]adenosine, and [(3)H]cytidine were stimulated, and uridine influx was independent of pH and not inhibited by dilazep, dipyridamole, or nitrobenzylmercaptopurine ribonucleoside. Fractionation of yeast membranes containing immunotagged recombinant FUN26 (shown to be functional in oocytes) demonstrated that the protein was primarily in intracellular membranes. These results indicated that FUI1 has high selectivity for uracil-containing ribonucleosides and imports uridine across cell-surface membranes, whereas FUN26 has broad nucleoside selectivity and most likely functions to transport nucleosides across intracellular membranes.

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.
