Abstract
The tumor suppressor activity of maspin (mammary serine protease inhibitor) has been associated with its nuclear localization. In this study we explore the regulation of maspin nuclear translocation. An in vitro nuclear import assay suggested that maspin can passively enter the nucleus. However, in silico analysis identified a putative maspin nuclear localization signal (NLS), which was able to mediate the nuclear translocation of a chimeric protein containing this NLS fused to five green fluorescent protein molecules in tandem (5GFP). Dominant-negative Ran-GTPase mutants RanQ69L or RanT24N suppressed this process. Unexpectedly, the full-length maspin fused to 5GFP failed to enter the nucleus. As maspin's putative NLS is partially hidden in its three-dimensional structure, we suggest that maspin nuclear transport could be conformationally regulated. Our results suggest that maspin nuclear translocation involves both passive and active mechanisms.

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 it
