The calnexin-independent state does not compensate for all calnexin functions in<i>Schizosaccharomyces pombe</i>
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In the yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, the molecular chaperone calnexin (Cnx1p) has been shown to be essential for viability. However, we recently reported that, under certain circumstances, S. pombe cells are able to survive in the absence of calnexin/Cnx1p, indicating that an inducible pathway can complement the calnexin/Cnx1p essential function(s). This calnexin-independent state (Cin) is transmitted by a nonchromosomal proteinaceous element exhibiting several prion-like properties. To assess to what extent the Cin state compensates for the absence of calnexin/Cnx1p, the Cin strain was further characterized. Cin cells exhibited cell-wall defects, sensitivity to heat shock, as well as higher secretion levels of a model glycoprotein. Together, these results indicate that the Cin state does not compensate for all calnexin/Cnx1p functions. Reintroduction of plasmid-borne cnx1(+) partially rescued most but not all of the phenotypes displayed by Cin cells. Interestingly, Cin cells in stationary phase exhibited increased levels of caspase activation, and this phenotype was not suppressed by the reintroduction of cnx1(+), suggesting that cells in the Cin state are subjected to a stress other than the absence of calnexin/Cnx1p.

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.
