Abstract
The unique region of the VP1 protein of parvoviruses was proposed to contain a parvoviral phospholipase A2 (pvPLA2) motif. Here, PLA2 activity is shown in the unique region of adeno-associated virus type 2 (AAV-2) VP1 when expressed as an isolated domain in bacteria. Mutations in this region of the capsid protein strongly reduced the infectivity of mutant virions in comparison to wild-type AAV-2. This correlated with effects on the activity of PLA2. The mutations had no influence on capsid assembly, packaging of viral genomes into particles or binding to and entry into HeLa cells. However, a delayed onset and reduced amount of early gene expression, as measured by Rep immunofluorescence, was observed. These results suggest that pvPLA2 activity is required for a step following perinuclear accumulation of virions but prior to early gene expression.

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
