Abstract
Proteasome-catalyzed peptide splicing (PCPS) represents an additional activity of mammalian 20S proteasomes recently identified in connection with antigen presentation. We show here that PCPS is not restricted to mammalians but that it is also a feature of yeast 20S proteasomes catalyzed by all three active site β subunits. No major differences in splicing efficiency exist between human 20S standard- and immuno-proteasome or yeast 20S proteasome. Using H(2)(18)O to monitor the splicing reaction we also demonstrate that PCPS occurs via direct transpeptidation that slightly favors the generation of peptides spliced in cis over peptides spliced in trans. Splicing efficiency itself is shown to be controlled by proteasomal cleavage site preference as well as by the sequence characteristics of the spliced peptides. By use of kinetic data and quantitative analyses of PCPS obtained by mass spectrometry we developed a structural model with two PCPS binding sites in the neighborhood of the active Thr1.

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
