Abstract
Many proteins involved in signal transduction contain peptide recognition modules (PRMs) that recognize short linear motifs (SLiMs) within their interaction partners. Here, we used large-scale peptide-phage display methods to derive optimal ligands for 163 unique PRMs representing 79 distinct structural families. We combined the new data with previous data that we collected for the large SH3, PDZ, and WW domain families to assemble a database containing 7,984 unique peptide ligands for 500 PRMs representing 82 structural families. For 74 PRMs, we acquired enough new data to map the specificity profiles in detail and derived position weight matrices and binding specificity logos based on multiple peptide ligands. These analyses showed that optimal peptide ligands resembled peptides observed in existing structures of PRM-ligand complexes, indicating that a large majority of the phage-derived peptides are likely to target natural peptide-binding sites and could thus act as inhibitors of natural protein-protein interactions. The complete dataset has been assembled in an online database (http://www.prm-db.org) that will enable many structural, functional, and biological studies of PRMs and SLiMs.

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
