Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP) is a key regulator of programmed cell death triggered by various apoptotic triggers. Translation of XIAP is controlled by a 162-nucleotide (nt) internal ribosome entry site (IRES) element located in the 5' untranslated region of XIAP mRNA. XIAP IRES mediates efficient translation of XIAP under physiological stress and enhances cell protection against serum deprivation and radiation-induced apoptosis. In the present report we describe the assembly of a sequence-specific RNA-protein complex consisting of at least four cytosolic proteins on the XIAP IRES element. We determine that the core binding sequence is approximately 28 nt long and is located 34 nt upstream of the initiation site. Moreover, we identify the La autoantigen as a protein that specifically binds XIAP IRES in vivo and in vitro. The biological relevance of this interaction is further demonstrated by the inhibition of XIAP IRES-mediated translation in the absence of functional La protein. The results suggest an important role for the La protein in the regulation of XIAP expression, possibly by facilitating ribosome recruitment to the XIAP IRES.

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.
