Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

2006 NSIS Honourable Mention, Undergraduate Student ResearchPrize Winning PaperThe enrichment of a Rhodotorula glufinis strain and the determination of itsphenylalanine ammonia lyase (E.C.4.3.1.5 - PAL) activity and attempts to measure peroxidase (E.C.1.11.1. 7) activity included conventional mycological procedures along with chemical and microscopic examination. Sabouraud dextrose medium was found to be the most suitable for cell growth, but cells grown on yeast-extract medium exhibited optimal enzyme activity. Growth and PAL activity were measured in yeast cells grown in yeast-extract broth medium for 24-27 h. The appearance of a reddish pink color associated with the yeast cells coincided with the appearance of appreciable PAL activity. The maximum PAL activity and biomass of yeast obtained in the yeast extract medium ranged from 33 to 35 unitslmg dry cells and 7.5 to 8.0 g dry cells/l, respectively. In addition to phenylalanine, Rhodatowla PAL also used phenylalanine methyl-ester as a substrate. No peroxidase activity was found in these R. glutinis cells.L'enrichissement de la souche de Rhodatarula glutinis et la detenmination de l'activite de la phenylalanine ammoniac-lyase (E.C.4.3.1.5 - PAL) chez cette souche, de meme que les tentatives de mesure de I'activite de la peroxydase (E.C.1 .11.1 .7), ont compris I'utilisation de procedures mycologiques traditionnelles ainsi que des examens microscopiques et chimiques. Nous avons constate que la gelose Sabouraud au dextrose est Ie meilleur milieu pour assurer la croissance cellulaire, mais que l'activite enzymatique est optimale dans les cellules cultivees sur un milieu a base d'extrait de levure. Nousavons mesure la croissance de cellulesde levure culliveesdans un bouillon a base d'extrait de levure pendant 24 a 27 heures et nous avons mesure I'activite de la PAL dans ces memes cellules. L'apparition d'une couleur rose rougeatre associee aux cellules de levure a coIncide avec Ie debut d'une periode d'activite notable de laPAL. L'activite maxima Ie de la PAL obtenue dans Ie milieu a base d'exlrait de levure a varie de 33 a 35 unites par mg de cellules seches, tandis que la biomasse de levure maximale obtenue dans Ie meme milieu a varie de 7,5 a 8,0 9 de cellules seches par litre. En plus de la phenylalanine, la PAlde Rhodotorula a utilise I'ester methylique de la phenylalanine comme substrat. Aucune activite de la peroxydase n'a ete observee dans ces cellules de R. glutinis.•

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
