The C‐terminal C1 cassette of the <i>N</i>‐methyl‐<scp>d</scp>‐aspartate receptor 1 subunit contains a bi‐partite nuclear localization sequence
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The N -methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) is a multimeric transmembrane protein composed of at least two subunits. One subunit, NR1, is derived from a single gene and can be subdivided into three regions: the N-terminal extracellular domain, the transmembrane regions, and the C-terminal intracellular domain. The N-terminal domain is responsible for Mg2+ metal ion binding and channel activity, while the transmembrane domains are important for ion channel formation. The intracellular C-terminal domain is involved in regulating receptor activity and subcellular localization. Our recent experiments indicated that the intracellular C-terminal domain, when expressed independently, localizes almost exclusively in the nucleus. An examination of the amino acid sequence reveals the presence of a putative nuclear localization sequence (NLS) in the C1 cassette of the NR1 intracellular C-terminus. Using an expression vector designed to test whether a putative NLS sequence is a valid, functional NLS, we have demonstrated that a bi-partite NLS does in fact exist within the NR1-1 C-terminus. Computer algorithms identified a putative helix-loop-helix motif that spanned the C0C1 cassettes of the C-terminus. These data suggest that the NR1 subunit may represent another member of a family of transmembrane proteins that undergo intramembrane proteolysis, releasing a cytosolic peptide that is actively translocated to the nucleus leading to alterations in gene regulation.

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.
