Custom Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization–Time of Flight Mass Spectrometric Database for Identification of Environmental Isolates of the Genus <i>Burkholderia</i> and Related Genera
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Gram-negative proteobacterial order Burkholderiales has emerged as a promising source of novel natural products in recent years. This order includes the genus Burkholderia and the newly defined genera Caballeronia and Paraburkholderia . However, development of this resource has been hampered by difficulties with rapid and selective isolation of Burkholderiales strains from the environment. Environmental metagenome sequencing has revealed that the potential for natural products is not evenly distributed throughout the microbial world. Thus, large but targeted microbial isolate libraries are needed to effectively explore the chemical potential of natural products. To study these organisms efficiently, methods to quickly identify isolates to the genus level are required. Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization–time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) is already used in clinical settings to reliably identify unknown bacterial pathogens. We have adapted similar methodology using the MALDI Biotyper instrument to rapidly identify environmental isolates of Burkholderia , Caballeronia , and Paraburkholderia for downstream natural product discovery.

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.
