Abstract
Vts1p is the Saccharomyces cerevisiae member of the Smaug family of post-transcriptional regulators, which is a group of sequence-specific RNA-binding proteins that regulate target mRNA expression. Vts1p is known to mediate deadenylation-dependent degradation of target transcripts through the recruitment of the Ccr4p/Pop2p/Not deadenylase complex. By conducting a functional analysis of Vts1p deletion mutants, I demonstrate that two regions within Vts1p are independently capable of downregulating the expression of an mRNA reporter. I provide both genetic and biochemical evidence that suggests residues 170-523 regulate reporter expression at the level of mRNA stability and function through a mechanism that requires the Ccr4p/Pop2p/Not deadenylase, whereas residues 1-237 repress reporter expression at the level of translation and function through a novel mechanism. In addition, I map a direct interaction between the eIF4E-binding protein, Eap1p, and the Vts1p SAM domain, which suggests a model in which residues 170-523 recruit Eap1p to mediate efficient target transcript degradation.

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.
