Abstract
NHE3 is regulated via alterations in membrane surface charge. This is achieved through altered binding of cationic regions in the cytosolic-terminus of the exchanger with the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane. Calmodulin antagonists, including W-7, regulate surface potential and inhibit NHE3 activity. Utilizing fluorescent protein conjugated membrane probes we show that binding of cationic, but not hydrophobic peptides, to the plasma membrane is prevented by W-7. An interaction between cationic regions in the regulatory, cytosolic domain of NHE3 to anionic phospholipids in either reconstituted liposomes or the plasma membrane in cell culture is similarly prevented by W-7, at a concentration that inhibits the exchanger. We propose therefore that W-7 inhibits NHE3 activity, at least in part, by altering the association of cationic segments within the carboxy-terminus of the exchanger with anionic phospholipids in the plasma membrane.

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
