Molecular Basis of RNA-Mediated Gene Regulation on the Adenine Riboswitch by Single-Molecule Approaches
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The adenine-specific pbuE riboswitch undergoes metal ion-dependent folding that involves a long-range tertiary loop-loop interaction between two stem loops. Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) and single-molecule FRET studies demonstrate the ability of the loops to interact in the absence of the ligand. Although the riboswitch can fold in the absence of adenine, ligand binding stabilizes this folded conformation by increasing the folding and decreasing the unfolding rates of the riboswitch. The presence of the ligand also decreases the magnesium ion concentration required to promote the loop-loop interaction. Single-molecule FRET studies demonstrate that individual aptamer molecules exhibit great heterogeneity in the rates of folding and unfolding, which is reduced in the presence of adenine. Moreover, single-molecule FRET proposes that riboswitch folding proceeds through a complex landscape that involves a discrete intermediate.

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.
