The identification of <b><i>Dictyostelium</i></b> phosphoproteins altered in response to the activation of RasG
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Dictyostelium RasG has been implicated in the regulation of a variety of cellular processes, including the initiation of development, cell movement, and cytokinesis, but the molecular components of the signaling pathways involved are largely unknown. We used a tetracycline-regulated protein expression system to study the effect of activated RasG, RasG(G12T), expression on the phosphorylation state of Dictyostelium proteins. Over 70 vegetative phosphoprotein components were resolved by two-dimensional (2-D) immunoblot analysis and of these 16 phosphothreonine and three phosphotyrosine protein components were found to reproducibly change upon RasG(G12T) expression. Thirteen of these were recovered from 2-D gels and identified by mass spectrometry of in-gel tryptic digestions. The proteins identified include the signaling proteins RasGEF-R and protein kinase B, the adhesion protein DdCAD-1, the cytoskeletal protein actin, the mitochondrial division protein FtsZA, and proteins involved in translation and metabolism. In addition to the direct demonstration of the phosphorylation of putative downstream targets of RasG activation, these findings reveal previously undetected phosphorylation of several proteins.

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.
