The amino terminus of high-voltage-activated calcium channels
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCCs), calmodulin (CaM), and calmodulin kinase II (CaMKII) are essential for various nervous system functions. CaM and CaMKII differentially regulate calcium dependent facilitation (CDF) and calcium dependent inactivation (CDI) of the Cav1 and Cav2 families of VGCCs. It is generally accepted that conserved structures in the C-terminus of these channels regulate CDF and CDI, and yet recent evidence indicates that other intracellular regions may be involved. We recently discovered that N-terminal sequences in Cav1.2 bind CaM and CaMKII, and function to regulate CDI as well as surface expression and open probability, respectively. Cav1 and Cav2 share significant portions of N-terminal sequence and therefore we explored whether homologous binding sites might exist in Cav2.1. Here, we show that like the proximal N-terminus of Cav1.2, the homologous region of Cav2.1 contains sequences which interact either directly or indirectly with CaM.

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.
