Abstract
LRP1 [LDL (low-density lipoprotein) receptor-related protein 1]-null CHO cells (Chinese-hamster ovary cells) (13-5-1 cells) exhibited accelerated cell growth and severe tumour progression after they were xenografted into nude mice. Reconstitution of LRP1 expression in these cells, either with the full-length protein or with a minireceptor, reduced growth rate as well as suppressed tumour development. We tested the role of the tyrosine residue in the FXNPXY63 motif within the LRP1 cytoplasmic domain in signal transduction and cell growth inhibition by site-specific mutagenesis. The LRP1 minireceptors harbouring Tyr63 to alanine or Tyr63 to phenylalanine substitution had diametrically opposite effects on cell growth, cell morphology and tumour development in mice. The Y63F-expressing cells showed suppressed cell growth and tumour development, which were associated with decreased beta-catenin and cadherin concentrations in the cells. On the other hand, the Y63A-expressing cells lacked inhibition on cell growth and tumour development, which were associated with hyperactivation of ERKs (extracellular-signal-regulated kinases), FAK (focal adhesion kinase) and cyclin D1 in the cells. The mutant Y63A minireceptor also exhibited reduced capacity in binding to the Dab2 (disabled 2) adaptor protein. In addition, the Y63A mutant showed increased caveolar localization, and cells expressing Y63A had altered caveolae architecture. However, tyrosine to alanine substitution at the other NPXY29 motif had no effect on cell growth or tumorigenesis. These results suggest that the FXNPXY63 motif of LRP1 not only governs cellular localization of the receptor but also exerts multiple functional effects on signalling pathways involved in cell growth regulation.

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
