Molecular characterization of a synthetic neutralizing antibody targeting p67 of <i>Theileria parva</i>
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Theileria parva sporozoite surface antigen p67 is a target of the bovine humoral immune response that generates antibodies capable of providing protection against subsequent infection. As a result, p67 has been the subject of efforts aimed at the development of an anti-sporozoite subunit vaccine. Previous studies have identified neutralizing epitopes in the N- and C-terminal regions of the full-length protein and shown that immunization with a C-terminal fragment of p67 (p67C) alone is capable of eliciting protection. To identify additional neutralizing epitopes in p67C, selections were conducted against it using a phage-displayed synthetic antibody library. An antibody that neutralized the sporozoite in vitro was identified, and the crystal structure of a Fab:peptide complex was elucidated. Mutagenesis studies aimed at validating and further characterizing the Fab:peptide interaction identified critical residues involved in binding and neutralization. This study also validates distinct epitopes for previously reported neutralizing antibodies.

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.
