Overexpression of wild‐type and mutant mucolipin proteins in mammalian cells: effects on the late endocytic compartment organization
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Mucolipin-1 is a 65-kDa membrane protein encoded by the MCOLN1 gene, which is mutated in patients with mucolipidosis type IV (MLIV), a rare neurodegenerative lysosomal storage disorder. We studied the subcellular localization of wild-type and three different mutant forms (T232P, F408del and F465L) of mucolipin by expressing Myc-tagged proteins in HeLa cells. The overexpressed wild-type mucolipin colocalizes to late endocytic structures and induces an aberrant distribution of these compartments. F408del and F465L MLIV mutant proteins show a distribution similar to the wild-type protein, whereas T232P is retained in the endoplasmic reticulum. Among the mutants, only F408del induces a redistribution of the late endocytic compartment. These findings suggest that the overexpression of the mucolipin cation channel influences the dynamic equilibrium of late endocytic compartments.

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.
