Regulation of the Expression of Intracellular <i>β</i>-Carbonic Anhydrase in Response to CO2 and Light in the Marine Diatom <i>Phaeodactylum tricornutum</i>
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Cells of the marine diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum Bohlin (UTEX 642) grown in 5% CO(2) were transferred to air-level CO(2) in the light or dark and allowed to acclimate to air. No accumulation of the transcript of the P. tricornutum beta-carbonic anhydrase 1 (ptca1) was detected in 5% CO(2)-grown cells, but ptca1 mRNA accumulated and reached a peak after 6 h acclimation to air but decreased over the next 18 h. A similar accumulation time course was observed in cells air-acclimated in the dark, except that levels of mRNA were <50% those in the light. These results suggest that air-level [CO(2)] is required to trigger the transcription of ptca1 and that light affects the extent of acclimation. During acclimation to air for 120 h in the light, levels of ptca1 mRNA exhibited a periodic oscillation with a cycle of about 24 h, which, however, was not reflected in protein accumulation levels. A 5'-upstream region from the transcription-start site toward -1,292 bp of ptca1 was cloned by inverse polymerase chain reaction, and 5'-truncations were carried out on this fragment. The truncated promoter regions were fused with the beta-glucuronidase gene (uidA) and introduced into P. tricornutum. The promoter fragments, truncated at positions -1,292, -824, -484, -225, and -70 bp, conferred on transformants clear CO(2)-responsive beta-glucuronidase expressions. In contrast, the CO(2)-responsive regulation was severely impaired or completely abolished by truncations, respectively, at position -50 or -30 bp. These results indicate that critical cis-elements required for CO(2)-responsive transcription of ptca1 may be located between -70 and -30 bp relative to the transcription start site.

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.
