Expression and characterization of the anion transporter homologue YNL275w in <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i>
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A search of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome has revealed an open reading frame, YNL275w, which encodes a 576-amino acid protein that shows sequence similarity to the family of mammalian Cl-/HCO3- anion exchangers and Na+/HCO3- cotransporters. This yeast protein also has a very similar hydropathy profile to the mammalian HCO3- transporters, indicating a similar membrane topology and structure. A V5 epitope and His6-tagged version of Ynl275wp was expressed in yeast and was localized to the plasma membrane by subcellular fractionation and immunofluorescence labeling. The protein was purified by nickel affinity chromatography and was found not to be N-glycosylated. The protein's mobility on SDS-PAGE gels was not altered by treatment with N-glycanase F, alpha-mannosidase, or by mutation of each of the five consensus N-glycosylation sites. The protein did not bind to concanavalin A by lectin blotting or lectin affinity chromatography. The expressed protein bound specifically to a stilbene disulfonate inhibitor resin (SITS-Affi-Gel), and this binding could be competed by certain anions (HCO3-, Cl-, NO3-, and I-) but not by others (SO4(2-) and PO4(3-)). These results suggest that the yeast gene YNL275w encodes a nonglycosylated anion transport protein, localized to the plasma membrane.

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.
