Transmembrane topology of the AbsA1 sensor kinase of Streptomyces coelicolor
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The sensor kinase AbsA1 (SCO3225) phosphorylates the response regulator AbsA2 (SCO3226) and dephosphorylates AbsA2 approximately P. The phosphorylated response regulator represses antibiotic biosynthesis operons in Streptomyces coelicolor. AbsA1 was predicted to have an atypical transmembrane topology, and the location of its signal-sensing domain is not readily obvious. To better understand this protein and to gain insight into its signal response mechanism, we determined its transmembrane topology using fusions of absA1 to egfp, which is believed to be the first application of this approach to transmembrane topology in the actinomycetes. Our results are in agreement with the in silico topological predictions and demonstrate that AbsA1 has five transmembrane domains, four near the N terminus and one near the C terminus. Unlike most sensor kinases, the largest extracellular portion of AbsA1 is at the C terminus.

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.
