C-terminal domain of nonhistone protein HMGB1 as a modulator of HMGB1–DNA structural interactions
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The HMGB1 protein (High Mobility Group protein 1) participates in the formation of functionally significant DNA-protein complexes. HMGB1 protein contains two DNA-binding domains and negatively charged C-terminal region. The latter consists of continuous sequence of dicarboxylic amino acids residues. Structural changes in DNA-protein complexes were studied by circular dichroism spectroscopy (CD) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Natural HMGB1 and recombinant protein HMGB1(A + B) lacked negatively charged C-terminal region were used. The DNA–HMGB1(A + B) complexes demonstrate an unusually high optical activity in 150 mM NaCl solutions. AFM of the latter complexes shows, that at the low concentration of HMGB1 in the complex the protein is distributed along DNA in a random way. Increase of HMGB1 content leads to cooperative interaction and a redistribution of the bound protein molecules on DNA is observed. Based on the data obtained we conclude that protein–protein interactions play a key role in the formation of highly ordered DNA–HMGB1 complexes. It was shown that C-terminal domain modulate the interactions of DNA with HMGB1 protein. We suggest that the C-terminal domain of HMGB1 also modulates the “packing” of HMGB1 molecules on the DNA.

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.
