Abstract
The peritrophic matrix (PM) of Plutella xylostella larvae was found to contain twelve integral and eighteen loosely associated proteins. An antiserum against Mamestra configurata integral PM proteins cross-reacted with several P. xylostella PM proteins and was used to isolate a partial cDNA encoding an insect intestinal mucin (PxIIM). PxIIM was expressed primarily in the larval midgut. The deduced protein sequence of the partial cDNA contained three potentially glycosylated, mucin-like domains and six cysteine-rich chitin-binding domains (CBDs). An additional chitin-binding domain was proposed to reside at the amino terminus of the protein based on comparison with other IIM. The organization of mucin domains and CBDs exhibited features, including an internal triplet of regularly spaced CBDs and a carboxyl terminal CBD with two additional conserved cysteine residues, that were found to be common to other lepidopteran IIMs.

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
