Abstract
The production of green fluorescent protein (GFP) in Methylobacterium extorquens was studied by creating four different constructs using pJB3KmD, pRK310 and pVK101 vectors, as well as pLac and soluble methane monooxygenase (sMMO) promoters. Plasmids were introduced into the cells by electroporation. Expression of GFP by selected clones was evaluated by growing cells in complex or defined media. The use of pRK310 as an expression vector containing the lacZ promoter resulted in a 100-fold increase of GFP production when compared to cells containing the pLac-GFP-pJB3KmD construct. Higher production of GFP was observed also in cells containing pLac- GFP-pRK310 and pmmoX-GFP-pVK101 constructs. While the transcriptional regulation of the smmo gene in Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b is known to be copper-dependent, expression of GFP by M. extorquens clones harboring pmmoX-promoters was not strongly controlled by the presence of copper in the medium. The production of GFP was generally constant throughout the growth of M. extorquens carrying the pLac-GFP-pRK310 construct. GFP yields varied between 850 and 1000 Wg of GFP g biomass⁻¹. However, the yield of GFP in cells carrying pmmoX-GFP-pVK101 was somewhat reduced after the mid-exponential phase of growth.

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
