Polymorphism in the Y box controls level of cytokine‐mediated expression of HLA‐DRB1 genes
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The HLA class II molecules play an important role in immune response. The quality of immune response is dependent not only on the polymorphisms in the class II molecules, but also on the level of their cell-surface expression. In fact, it has been demonstrated that differences in the level of expression of DRB1 and DRB3 genes restricted and activated distinct CD4+ T lymphocytes. We and others have previously described allelic polymorphisms in the upstream regulatory regions of DRB genes, which affected DNA-protein interactions and resulted in significantly different promoter strengths. We showed that polymorphisms in both the X1 and Y box motifs affect level of constitutive expression of DRB1 genes in the DR1, DR51 and DR53 haplotype groups. In the present study, we examined the effect polymorphisms in the X1 box and the Y box on the cytokine (interferon-gamma (IFNgamma), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha) and granulocyte macrophage-colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF))-mediated transcriptional activities of DRB1 promoters in these, i.e. DR1, DR51 and DR53, haplotype groups. The results demonstrate that the polymorphism in the X1 box does not affect cytokine-mediated strength of DRB1 gene promoters. In contrast, the polymorphism in the Y box, which affects the inverted CCAAT sequence, plays a dominant role on the cytokine-mediated transcriptional activity of DRB1 promoters.

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.
