Transcobalamin deficiency due to activation of an intra exonic cryptic splice site
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Transcobalamin (TC), a vitamin B12 (cobalamin, Cbl) binding protein in plasma, promotes the cellular uptake of the vitamin by receptor-mediated endocytosis. Inherited TC deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by megaloblastic anaemia caused by cellular vitamin B12 depletion. It may be accompanied by neurological complications, including a delay in psychomotor and mental development. This report describes three sisters with inherited TC deficiency resulting from a splicing defect in the TC gene. A point mutation was identified in intron 3 splice site of the TC gene that activates a cryptic splice site in exon 3. The transcript generated has an in-frame deletion of 81 nucleotides and the resulting truncated protein is unstable and not secreted by the cells. Until now, genetic studies have been reported in only five patients with TC deficiency and the molecular defect was different in each of them, which gives evidence for a genetic heterogeneity of the disease.

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.
