Abstract
It is now established that endo-lysosomes, also referred to as late endosomes, serve as intracellular calcium store, in addition to the endoplasmic reticulum. While abundant calcium-binding proteins provide the latter compartment with its calcium storage capacity, essentially nothing is known about the mechanism responsible for calcium storage in endo-lysosomes. In this paper, we propose that the structural organization of endo-lysosomal membranes drives the calcium storage capacity of the compartment. Indeed, endo-lysosomes exhibit a characteristic multivesicular ultrastructure, with intralumenal membranes providing a large amount of additional bilayer surface. We used a theoretical approach to investigate the calcium storage capacity of endosomes, using known calcium binding affinities for bilayers and morphological data on endo-lysosome membrane organization. Finally, we tested our predictions experimentally after Sorting Nexin 3 depletion to decrease the intralumenal membrane content. We conclude that the major negatively-charge lipids and proteins of endo-lysosomes serve as calcium-binding molecules in the acidic calcium stores of mammalian cells, while the large surface area of intralumenal membranes provide the necessary storage capacity.

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
