Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

. Glycosyl-linkage composition analysis and NMR analysis showed that the recombinant enzyme Gtf1 produced a soluble form of α-1,6-glucan, whereas the recombinant enzyme Gtf2 produced glucans with approximately equal percentages of α-1,6- and α-1,3-glucose residues both in the supernatant (S-glucan) and as a precipitate (P-glucan). Comparison of polysaccharides synthesized by Gtf1, Gtf2, and LvnS revealed that Gtf2-S-glucan, which was produced in the supernatant by Gtf2 and formed particles of 7.8 µm, possessed 1.8-fold higher ability to stimulate IgA production from murine Peyer's patch cells than native NTM048 EPS. Evaluation of adjuvanticity by intranasal administration of mice with an antigen (ovalbumin) and Gtf2-S-glucan or NTM048 EPS showed that Gtf2-S-glucan induced the production of higher antigen-specific antibodies in the airway mucosa and plasma, suggesting a pivotal role of Gtf2-S-glucan in the adjuvanticity of NTM048 EPS.

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.
