Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Summary In vitro evolution and whole genome analysis were used to comprehensively identify the genetic determinants of chemical resistance in the model microbe, Saccharomyces cerevisiae . Analysis of 355 curated, laboratory-evolved clones, resistant to 80 different compounds, demonstrates differences in the types of mutations that are identified in selected versus neutral evolution and reveals numerous new, compound-target interactions. Through enrichment analysis we further identify a set of 137 genes strongly associated with or conferring drug resistance as indicated by CRISPR-Cas9 engineering. The set of 25 most frequently mutated genes was enriched for transcription factors and for almost 25 percent of the compounds, resistance was mediated by one of 100 independently derived, gain-of-function, single nucleotide variants found in 170-amino-acid domains in two Zn 2 C 6 transcription factors, YRR1 and YRM1 (p < 1x 10 −100 ). This remarkable enrichment for transcription factors as drug resistance genes may explain why it is challenging to develop effective antifungal killing agents and highlights their important role in evolution.

Not 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.
