Abstract
Growing evidence suggests that human gut microbiome composition and function are highly associated with health and disease. As such, high-throughput metaproteomic studies are becoming more common in gut microbiome research. However, using a conventional long liquid chromatography (LC)-MS/MS gradient metaproteomics approach as an initial screen in large-scale microbiome experiments can be slow and expensive. To combat this challenge, we introduce MetaProClust-MS1, a computational framework for microbiome screening using MS1-only profiles. In this proof-of-concept study, we show that MetaProClust-MS1 identifies clusters of gut microbiome treatments using MS1-only profiles similar to those identified using MS/MS. Our approach allows researchers to prioritize samples and treatments of interest for further metaproteomic analyses and may be generally applicable to any proteomic analysis. In particular, this approach may be especially useful for large-scale metaproteomic screening or in clinical settings where rapid diagnostic evidence is required.

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
