Identification and analysis of retrogenes in the East Asian nematode <i>Caenorhabditis</i> sp. 5 genome
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Retroposition, a molecular mechanism generating new genes, helps the formation of retrogenes and new functions, contributing to the evolution of genomes. The completed genome sequence of Caenorhabditis sp. 5 presents an excellent opportunity to identify retrogenes within C. sp. 5. We identified a total of 43 retrogenes and their corresponding chimeric genes. Among these, 29 were found to be intact retrogenes and 14 to be retropseudogenes. Unexpectedly, a high number of retrogenes appear to be functional and possibly involved in catalysis. Also, the proportion of the retrogenes forming chimeric structure is the highest among Caenorhabditis nematodes. In addition, the Ks distribution shows that C. sp. 5 has more retrogenes with high Ks, which may explain the high functionality of them among Caenorhabditis species. Our study will be helpful in the understanding of the functional and evolutionary impact of retroposition on C. sp. 5 genome.

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.
