Determinants of cardiac Na<sup>+</sup>/Ca<sup>2+</sup>exchanger temperature dependence: NH<sub>2</sub>-terminal transmembrane segments
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The cardiac Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger (NCX) in trout exhibits profoundly lower temperature sensitivity in comparison to the mammalian NCX. In this study, we attempt to characterize the regions of the NCX molecule that are responsible for its temperature sensitivity. Chimeric NCX molecules were constructed using wild-type trout and canine NCX cDNA and expressed in Xenopus oocytes. NCX-mediated currents were measured at 7, 14, and 30 degrees C using the giant excised-patch technique. By using this approach, the differential temperature dependence of NCX was found to reside within the NH(2)-terminal region of the molecule. Specifically, we found that approximately 75% of the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchange differential energy of activation is attributable to sequence differences in the region that include the first four transmembrane segments, and the remainder is attributable to transmembrane segment five and the exchanger inhibitory peptide site.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
