The mechanisms regulating the subcellular localization of AID
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Activation induced deaminase (AID) is a unique enzyme that directly introduces mutations in the immunoglobulin genes to generate antibody diversity during the humoral immune response. Since this mutator enzyme poses a measurable risk of off-target mutation, which can be deleterious or transforming for a cell, several regulatory mechanisms exist to control its activity. At least three of these mechanisms affect AID subcellular localization. It was recently found that AID is actively imported into the nucleus, most likely through importin-α/β recognizing a structural nuclear localization signal. However, AID is largely excluded from the nucleus in steady state thanks to two mechanisms. In addition to nuclear export through the exportin CRM1, a mechanism retaining AID in the cytoplasm exists. Cytoplasmic retention hinders the passive diffusion of AID into the nucleus playing an important role in the nuclear exclusion of AID. Subcellular localization of AID also determines its stability. The regulation of the nuclear fraction of AID by these many mechanisms has functional implications for antibody diversification.

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.
