Crystal structure of chromo barrel domain of RBBP1
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract RBBP1 is a retinoblastoma protein (pRb) binding protein acting as a repressor of gene transcription. RBBP1 is a multidomain protein including a chromo barrel domain, and its chromo barrel domain has been reported to recognize histone H4K20me3 weakly, and this binding is enhanced by the simultaneous binding of DNA. However, the molecular basis of this DNA-mediated histone binding by the chromo barrel domain of RBBP1 is unclear. Here we attempted to co-crystallize the chromo barrel domain of RBBP1 with either a histone H4K20me3 peptide alone or with both a histone H4K20me3 peptide and DNA, but only solved the peptide/DNA unbound crystal structure. Our structural analysis indicates that RBBP1 could interact with histone H4K20me3 similar to other histone binding chromo barrel domains, and the surface charge representation analysis of the chromo barrel domain of RBBP1 suggests that the chromo barrel domain of RBBP1 does not have a typical DNA binding surface, indicating that it might not bind to DNA. Consistently, our ITC assays also showed that DNA does not significantly enhance the histone binding ability of the chromo barrel domain of RBBP1.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
