Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Significance Many pathogens manipulate the host environment to promote their survival and eventual transmission. Toxoplasma gondii , an intracellular parasite that can cause disease in those with weakened immune systems, is no exception. One of the more dramatic effects of T. gondii infection on the host cell is a relocalization of the host mitochondria around the parasite-containing vacuole. Here, we have identified two host proteins that are required for T. gondii manipulation of host mitochondria, both of which are involved in mitochondrial protein import. This discovery is a remarkable example of a parasite gene evolving to specifically target a host receptor on the surface of an organelle.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
