Dynamic unfolding of a regulatory subunit of cAMP‐dependent protein kinase by capillary electrophoresis: Impact of cAMP dissociation on protein stability
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Characterization of the unfolding dynamics of a recombinant type IA regulatory subunit (RIalpha) of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent protein kinase (cAPK) was examined by CE with UV detection. Electrophoretic separation of RIalpha by CE in a buffer devoid of cAMP resulted in rapid dissociation of the complex from the original sample due to the high negative mobility of the ligand relative to receptor. This process enabled in-capillary generation of cAMP-stripped RIalpha, which was used to estimate the apparent dissociation constant (Kd) of 0.6 +/- 0.2 microM. A comparison of RIalpha dynamic unfolding processes with urea denaturation was performed by CE with (i.e., RIalpha-cAMP) and without (i.e., cAMP-stripped RIalpha) excess cAMP in the buffer during electromigration. The presence of cAMP in the buffer confirmed greater stabilization of the protein, as reflected by a higher standard free energy change (DeltaG(U) degrees) of 10.1 +/- 0.5 kcal x mol(+1) and greater cooperativity in unfolding (m) of -2.30 +/- 0.11 kcal x mol(-1) M(-1). CE offers a rapid, yet versatile platform for probing the thermodynamics of cAPK and other types of receptor-ligand complexes in free solution.

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.
