Abstract
Ivacaftor (VX-770) was the first cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulatory drug approved for the treatment of patients with cystic fibrosis. Electron cryomicroscopy (cryo-EM) studies of detergent-solubilized CFTR indicated that VX-770 bound to a site at the interface between solvent and a hinge region in the CFTR protein conferred by transmembrane (tm) helices: tm4, tm5, and tm8. We re-evaluated VX-770 binding to CFTR in biological membranes using photoactivatable VX-770 probes. One such probe covalently labeled CFTR at two sites as determined following trypsin digestion and analysis by tandem-mass spectrometry. One labeled peptide resides in the cytosolic loop 4 of CFTR and the other is located in tm8, proximal to the site identified by cryo-EM. Complementary data from functional and molecular dynamic simulation studies support a model, where VX-770 mediates potentiation via multiple sites in the CFTR protein.

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
