Abstract
Chromosome breaks are dangerous business, carrying the risk of loss of genetic information or, even worse, misrepair of the break, leading to outcomes such as dicentric chromosomes or oncogenic translocations. Yet V(D)J recombination, a process that breaks, rearranges and repairs chromosomes, is crucial to the development of the adaptive immune system, for it gives B- and T-cells the capacity to generate a virtually unlimited repertoire of antigen receptor proteins to combat an equally vast array of antigens. To minimize the risks inherent in chromosomal breakage, V(D)J recombination is carefully orchestrated at multiple levels, ranging from DNA sequence requirements all the way up to chromatin conformation and nuclear architecture. In the present chapter we introduce various regulatory controls, with an emphasis on epigenetic mechanisms and recent work that has begun to elucidate their interdependence.

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
