Abstract
DNA damage from endogenous and exogenous sources occurs throughout the cell cycle. In response to this damage, cells have developed a series of biochemical responses that allow them to recover from DNA damage and prevent mutations from being passed on to daughter cells. An important part of the DNA damage response is the ability to halt the progression of the cell cycle, allowing damaged DNA to be repaired. The cell cycle can be halted at semi-discrete times, called checkpoints, which occur at critical stages during the cell cycle. Recent work in our laboratory and by others has shown the importance of post-translational histone modifications in the DNA damage response. While many histone modifications have been identified that appear to facilitate repair per se, there have been surprisingly few links between these modifications and DNA damage checkpoints. Here, we review how modifications to histone H2A serine 129 (HSA129) and histone H3 lysine 79 (H3K79) contribute to the stimulation of the G1/S checkpoint. We also discuss recent findings that conflict with the current model of the way methylated H3K79 interacts with the checkpoint adaptor protein Rad9.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
