Conversion of a Cardiac Muscle Modulator from an Inhibitor to an Activator
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The binding of calcium to cardiac troponin C (cTnC) enhances the binding of troponin I (cTnI) switch region to the regulatory domain of cTnC (cNTnC) and triggers muscle contraction. Several molecules alter the response of the sarcomere by targeting this interface; virtually all have an aromatic core that binds to the hydrophobic pocket of cNTnC and an aliphatic tail that interacts with the switch region of cTnI. W7 has been extensively studied, and the positively charged tail has been shown to be important for its inhibitory action. Herein we investigate the importance of the aromatic core of W7 by synthesizing compounds that have the core region of calcium activator dfbp-o with various lengths of the same tail (D-series). These compounds all bind more tightly to cNTnC-cTnI chimera (cChimera) than the analogous W-series compounds and show increased calcium sensitivity of force generation and ATPase activity, demonstrating that the cardiovascular system is tightly balanced.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
