Ma2/d promotes myonuclear positioning and association with the sarcoplasmic reticulum
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ABSTRACT The cytoplasm of striated myofibers contains a large number of membrane organelles, including sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), T-tubules and the nuclear membrane. These organelles maintain a characteristic juxtaposition that appears to be essential for efficient inter-membranous exchange of RNA, proteins and ions. We found that the membrane-associated Muscle-specific α2/δ (Ma2/d) subunit of the Ca2+ channel complex localizes to the SR and T-tubules, and accumulates at the myonuclear surfaces. Furthermore, Ma2/d mutant larval muscles exhibit nuclear positioning defects, disruption of the nuclear-SR juxtapositioning, as well as impaired larval locomotion. Ma2/d localization at the nuclear membrane depends on the proper function of the nesprin ortholog Msp300 and the BAR domain protein Amphiphysin (Amph). Importantly, live imaging of muscle contraction in intact Drosophila larvae indicated altered distribution of Sarco/Endoplamic Reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) around the myonuclei of Ma2/d mutant larvae. Co-immunoprecipitation analysis supports association between Ma2/d and Amph, and indirectly with Msp300. We therefore suggest that Ma2/d, in association with Msp300 and Amph, mediates interactions between the SR and the nuclear 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.
