Evidence that <i>AGL17</i> is a significant downstream target of CLF in floral transition control
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Polycomb-group (PcG) proteins are evolutionarily conserved in higher organisms and play essential roles in many developmental processes by catalyzing the trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27me3), a key repressive histone mark. In Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), histone methyltransferase CURLY LEAF (CLF) is one of the major PcG catalytic components, playing critical roles in plant growth and development, especially the floral transition. We have recently profiled the genome-wide occupancy of CLF by chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq). Interestingly, AGAMOUS-LIKE 17 (AGL17) that encodes a known flowering activator was found to be a CLF direct target. Based on this observation, we set out to examine to what extent this genetic module regulates the flowering. First, we validated the ChIP-seq results by ChIP-qPCR and show that CLF indeed targets AGL17, and the level of H3K27me3 is decreased when CLF is lost. Further, we show that the expression of AGL17 is significantly up-regulated in the clf-29 mutant compared to wild-type (WT). Finally, our clf agl17 double mutant analysis suggests that AGL17 is a significant downstream target of CLF in floral transition control.

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.
