Bibliographic record
Abstract
O(6) -Alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferases (AGTs) are responsible for the removal of O(6) -alkyl 2'-deoxyguanosine (dG) and O(4) -alkyl thymidine (dT) adducts from the genome. Unlike the E. coli OGT (O(6) -alkylguanine-DNA-alkyltransferase) protein, which can repair a range of O(4) -alkyl dT lesions, human AGT (hAGT) only removes methyl groups poorly. To uncover the influence of the C5 methyl group of dT on AGT repair, oligonucleotides containing O(4) -alkyl 2'-deoxyuridines (dU) were prepared. The ability of E. coli AGTs (Ada-C and OGT), human AGT, and an OGT/hAGT chimera to remove O(4) -methyl and larger adducts (4-hydroxybutyl and 7-hydroxyheptyl) from dU were examined and compared to those relating to the corresponding dT species. The absence of the C5 methyl group resulted in an increase in repair observed for the O(4) -methyl adducts by hAGT and the chimera. The chimera was proficient at repairing larger adducts at the O(4) atom of dU. There was no observed correlation between the binding affinities of the AGT homologues to adduct-containing oligonucleotides and the amounts of repair measured.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
