Abstract
The protease β-secretase (BACE1) plays a crucial role in the formation of amyloid-beta peptides. Here, we present a protocol for real-time quantification of BACE1 activity in brain tissue and cell lysates using a fluorogenic peptide substrate in a 96-well format. We describe steps for reagent and sample preparation, preparing the plate for BACE1 activity, and incubating and reading the plate, followed by quantification and analysis. This protocol is broadly accessible for laboratories studying enzymatic activity under physiological or pathological conditions. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Baranowski et al. 1

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
