Proteolysis and multimerization regulate signaling along the two-component regulatory system AdeRS
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Bacterial two-component regulatory systems are ubiquitous environment-sensing signal transducers involved in pathogenesis and antibiotic resistance. The Acinetobacter baumannii two-component regulatory system AdeRS is made up of a sensor histidine kinase AdeS and a cognate response regulator AdeR, which together reduce repression of the multidrug-resistant efflux pump AdeABC. Herein we demonstrate that an N-terminal intrinsically disordered tail in AdeR is important for the upregulation of adeABC expression, although it greatly increases the susceptibility of AdeR to proteasome-mediated degradation. We also show that AdeS assembles into a hexameric state that is necessary for its full histidine kinase activity, which appears to occur via cis autophosphorylation. Taken together, this study demonstrates new structural mechanisms through which two-component systems can transduce environmental signals to impact gene expression and enlightens new potential antimicrobial approach by targeting two-component regulatory systems.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
