Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The gene encoding yeast processing alpha glucosidase I, CWH41, was overexpressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae AH22, resulting in a 28-fold increase in expression of the soluble form of the enzyme. The soluble enzyme results from proteolytic cleavage between residues Ala 24 and Thr 25 of the transmembrane sequence of the membrane-bound form of the enzyme. This cleavage could be partially inhibited by addition of leupeptin and pepstatin during the enzyme isolation. The enzyme was purified to a final specific activity of 8550 U/mg protein using a combination of ammonium sulfate precipitation, anion exchange, concanavalin A, and gel filtration chromatography. The soluble form of the enzyme is a monomer with a molecular weight of 98 kDa by SDS-PAGE, and 89 kDa by gel filtration. The molecular weight decreased by approximately 5 kDa after treatment with N-glycosidase F, indicating that it is a glycoprotein. Soluble glucosidase I was sensitive to diethyl pyrocarbonate and not affected by N-ethylmaleimide, suggesting that mechanistically it is more similar to the plant than the mammalian form of the enzyme.

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
