Abstract
Glutamate decarboxylase (GAD), is a key enzyme in the central nervous system (CNS) that synthesizes the inhibitory neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) from glutamate. Our previous phylogenetic studies on the evolution of this enzyme indicates that there are at least two distinct forms: GAD65 and GAD67. They are the products of separate genes and probably derive from a common ancestral GAD gene following gene duplication prior to the emergence of the teleosts more than 200 Myr ago. Furthermore, a third GAD-like molecule, GAD3, discovered in the armed grenadier, Coryphaenoides (Nematonurus) armatus, is equally divergent from both GAD65 and GAD67. Specimens of C. (N.) armatus were collected by trawl at a depth of 4,000 m in the Porcupine Seabight (Northeastern Atlantic), and brains dissected and frozen for RNA extraction. All three GAD forms are found in the cerebellum, telencephalon and hypothalamus. Semiquantitative PCR analysis showed that males and females have similar levels of expression of GAD67 and GAD3 in the tissues studied. Independent of the sex examined, the levels of expression of GAD65 and GAD67 in the cerebellum were approximately half that in the telencephalon. GAD3 levels were approximately 30% higher in the cerebellum than in either the telencephalon or hypothalamus. In contrast to GAD67 and GAD3, hypothalamic expression of GAD65 mRNA is 1.8 times higher (p < 0.05) in males than in females. These data indicate that the expression of GAD65, a key enzyme for the synthesis of GABA is sexually dimorphic in females and males of C. (N.) armatus.

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
