Crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of native and selenomethionine fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase from<i>Thermus aquaticus</i>
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase (E.C. 4.1.2) catalyses the reversible cleavage of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate to dihydroxyacetone phosphate and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate in the glycolytic pathway of prokaryote and eukaryote organisms. The enzyme was obtained from the extreme thermophile Thermus aquaticus and, in contrast to mesophilic aldolases, expresses maximal activity in the presence of Co(2+) as cofactor instead of Zn(2+). The purified recombinant protein was monodisperse according to dynamic light-scattering measurements. Crystals of recombinant native class II fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase from T. aquaticus were obtained from two different starting conditions at low protein concentrations. Condition I, using the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method, yielded monoclinic crystals having space group P2 and unit-cell parameters a = 99.5, b = 57.5, c = 138.6 A, beta = 90.25 degrees. Diffraction data were collected to 2 A resolution at beamline X8-C of the NSLS synchrotron-radiation source. Native and selenomethionine-substituted protein crystals were obtained from condition II by hanging-drop vapor diffusion. The tetragonal crystals of the native protein belong to the space group P4(1), with unit-cell parameters a = b = 88.8, c = 163.1 A, while those of the SeMet protein have space group I4(1), with unit-cell parameters a = b = 88.6, c = 164.1 A. A data set suitable for MAD phasing was collected to 2.6 A resolution at beamline X8-C of the NSLS synchrotron source.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

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.
