Abstract
We have previously identified a 34 kDa protein (P34H) on the human sperm surface covering the acrosome. Using the hamster, we have also described a sperm protein, P26h, which is acquired by spermatozoa during epididymal transit. Both P34H and P26h belong to the carbonyl reductase family. Using molecular tools derived from P34H, we searched in the hamster epididymis for another protein related to the human sperm protein. Cloning and sequencing of P31h cDNA revealed 100% homology with the kidney DCXR (Dicarbonyl/L-Xylulose reductase). Northern Blot experiments revealed a single mRNA that was more expressed in the caput than in the corpus and cauda segment of adult epididymides. In situ hybridization was performed on sexually mature hamsters showing that the mRNA was localized in the principal cells throughout the epididymis. Using an anti-P34H antibody we have identified a P34H related protein named P31h (for 31 kDa). This protein showed 2D-electrophoretic behavior different from P26h and was detectable all along the epididymis (caput, corpus, and cauda) by Western Blot analysis. Immunohistochemistry techniques showed that P31h was localized in the perinuclear region of the principal cells of the epididymal epithelium within the three sections, both in sexually mature and immature animals. Results are discussed with regards to the potential function of DCXR in the epididymis.

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
