Abstract
Repairing DNA damage is one of the most important functions of the 'housekeeping' proteins, as DNA molecules are constantly subject to different kinds of damage. An important mechanism of DNA repair is the mismatch repair system (MMR). In eukaryotes, it is more complex than it is in bacteria or Archaea due to an inflated number of paralogues produced as a result of an extensive process of gene duplication and further specialization upon the evolution of the first eukaryotes, including an important part of the meiotic machinery. Recently, the discovery and sequencing of Asgard Archaea allowed us to revisit the MMR system evolution with the addition of new data from a group that is closely related to the eukaryotic ancestor. This new analysis provided evidence for a complex evolutionary history of eukaryotic MMR: an archaeal origin for the nuclear MMR system in eukaryotes, with subsequent acquisitions of other MMR systems from organelles.

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
