Abstract
The COP9 signalosome (CSN) is an evolutionarily conserved macromolecular complex that interacts with cullin-RING E3 ligases (CRLs) and regulates their activity by hydrolyzing cullin-Nedd8 conjugates. The CSN sequesters inactive CRL4(Ddb2), which rapidly dissociates from the CSN upon DNA damage. Here we systematically define the protein interaction network of the mammalian CSN through mass spectrometric interrogation of the CSN subunits Csn1, Csn3, Csn4, Csn5, Csn6 and Csn7a. Notably, we identified a subset of CRL complexes that stably interact with the CSN and thus might similarly be activated by dissociation from the CSN in response to specific cues. In addition, we detected several new proteins in the CRL-CSN interactome, including Dda1, which we characterized as a chromatin-associated core subunit of multiple CRL4 proteins. Cells depleted of Dda1 spontaneously accumulated double-stranded DNA breaks in a similar way to Cul4A-, Cul4B- or Wdr23-depleted cells, indicating that Dda1 interacts physically and functionally with CRL4 complexes. This analysis identifies new components of the CRL family of E3 ligases and elaborates new connections between the CRL and CSN complexes.

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
