Interaction of the MexA and MexB Components of the MexAB-OprM Multidrug Efflux System of <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> : Identification of MexA Extragenic Suppressors of a T578I Mutation in MexB
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A T578I mutation in MexB compromised the protein's contribution to antimicrobial resistance and negatively impacted its interaction with MexA. Mutations causing single amino acid changes in the C-terminal domain of MexA (R221H, L245F, E254K, and V259I) suppressed the antimicrobial susceptibility of a MexB(T578I)-expressing Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain and restored a MexA interaction with MexB(T578I). These data confirm the importance of the MexA C-terminal region in MexB binding and the likely significance of the region surrounding T587I of MexB in MexA interaction.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
