Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Compositionally biased regions (BRs) occur when a few amino‐acid types are enriched in a protein segment. There are possibly BR types in the known protein universe that have not been characterized experimentally. The UniProt protein database has been surveyed for evidence of such compositionally ‘‘dark matter’’. A ‘‘dark biased region’’ (DBR) is defined as a biased region with low probability of being an individual structural domain or intrinsically disordered region. The bias annotation program fLPS is used to generate a list of >13 million BRs, which is then thoroughly filtered for structure and intrinsic disorder. About a third of BRs (31%) has both substantial intrinsic disorder and structure. After filtering, there are ≈0.9 million DBRs (≈7% of the original BRs in ≈1.4% of proteins). These DBRs are hugely enriched in eukaryotes and hugely depleted in bacteria. They tend to be more hydrophobic than other protein regions, but are made of less extreme combinations of hydrophobic/hydrophilic residues. Given varying assumptions, It has been estimated that how many DBRs there might be for the high bias levels examined (with p ‐values < 1 × 10 –06 ), deriving a reasonable range of 0.7–7.2% of proteins having such DBRs. Hypotheses are examined about what such DBRs might be, that is, that they are from un‐ or undersampled domain/region categories or are unappreciated categories somewhat like existing ones.

Full frame distilled prediction

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.
