Saccharomyces cerevisiae: First Steps to a Suitable Model System To Study the Function and Intracellular Transport of Human Kidney Anion Exchanger 1
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA) is a common kidney dysfunction characterized by impaired acid secretion via urine. Previous studies revealed that α-intercalated cells of dRTA patients express mutated forms of human kidney anion exchanger 1 (kAE1) which result in inefficient plasma membrane targeting or diminished expression levels of kAE1. However, the precise dRTA-causing processes are inadequately understood, and alternative model systems are helpful tools to address kAE1-related questions in a fast and inexpensive way. In contrast to a previous study, we successfully expressed full-length kAE1 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae . Using advanced microscopy techniques as well as different biochemical and functionality assays, plasma membrane localization and biological activity were confirmed for the heterologously expressed anion transporter. These findings represent first important steps to use the potential of yeast as a model organism for studying trafficking, activity, and degradation of kAE1 and its mutant variants in the future.

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.
