<i>O</i><sup>6</sup>‐Alkylguanine DNA Alkyltransferase Repair Activity Towards Intrastrand Cross‐Linked DNA is Influenced by the Internucleotide Linkage
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Oligonucleotides containing an alkylene intrastrand cross-link (IaCL) between the O(6) -atoms of two consecutive 2'-deoxyguanosines (dG) were prepared by solid-phase synthesis. UV thermal denaturation studies of duplexes containing butylene and heptylene IaCL revealed a 20 °C reduction in stability compared to the unmodified duplexes. Circular dichroism profiles of these IaCL DNA duplexes exhibited signatures consistent with B-form DNA. Human O(6) -alkylguanine DNA alkyltransferase (hAGT) was capable of repairing both IaCL containing duplexes with slightly greater efficiency towards the heptylene analog. Interestingly, repair efficiencies of hAGT towards these IaCL were lower compared to O(6) -alkylene linked IaCL lacking the 5'-3'-phosphodiester linkage between the connected 2'-deoxyguanosine residues. These results demonstrate that the proficiency of hAGT activity towards IaCL at the O(6) -atom of dG is influenced by the backbone phosphodiester linkage between the cross-linked residues.

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.
