Rhizomelic chrondrodysplasia punctata type 2 resulting from paternal isodisomy of chromosome 1
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata (RCDP) is an autosomal-recessive disorder resulting from mutations in one of three peroxisomal genes essential for ether lipid biosynthesis, PEX7 (RCDP1), GNPAT (RCDP2), and AGPS (RCDP3). Affected patients have characteristic features including shortening of the proximal long bones, epiphyseal stippling, bilateral cataracts, growth and developmental delays. Whereas the majority of patients have RCDP type 1, around 5% have RCDP type 2 or 3. We identified a patient with RCDP type 2 and an apparent homozygous deletion, c.1428delC, after full sequencing of his GNPAT genes. The father was heterozygous for this mutation, while sequencing of the maternal GNPAT genes revealed only wild-type sequence. Southern analyses performed on parental gDNA did not show evidence of a maternal gene deletion. Amplification and fragment analysis of dinucleotide repeat markers spanning chromosome 1 in the patient and both parents revealed paternal uniparental inheritance. We discuss the potential mechanisms causing uniparental disomy (UPD) in this patient and review the literature on chromosome 1 UPD. The absence of non-RCDP clinical features in this patient was consistent with previous literature supporting the absence of imprinted genes on chromosome 1. This first description of RCDP caused by UPD dramatically changes the parental recurrence risk, highlighting the value of obtaining parental genotypes when the proband has a putative homozygous mutation by sequence analysis.

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.
