Genome‐scale identification of UDP‐GlcNAc‐dependent pathways
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Metabolite flux to UDP-GlcNAc and Golgi N-glycan biosynthesis regulates surface residency of glycoprotein receptors and transporters, and thus sensitivities of cells to extracellular cues. Salvage of GlcNAc increases UDP-GlcNAc and branching of N-glycans progressively, but displays an optimum for cell proliferation and bulk endocytosis in mouse NMuMG and human HEK293T epithelial cells. In this report, we measured global changes in gene expression in low and high GlcNAc-supplemented cells. Genes upregulated by high GlcNAc included the EGF and TGF-beta signaling pathways and cell cycle checkpoint, while downregulated genes indicated lower metabolic activity. Genes increased or decreased by high GlcNAc were assessed by transfecting cells with small interfering RNA (siRNA) and measuring effects on three phenotypes: proliferation and bulk endocytosis, and beta1,6GlcNAc-branching of N-glycans. siRNA targeting LGALS3, WBSCR17, PHF3, SDC2 and CTNNAL1 partially reversed the GlcNAc-induced phenotypes, suggesting a role for galectin-3/N-glycans, proteoglycans, O-glycans, and junctional cell adhesion.

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.
