Abstract
Gal A, Pentelenyi K, Remenyi V, Pal Z, Csanyi B, Tomory G, Rasko I, Molnar MJ. Novel heteroplasmic mutation in the anticodon stem of mitochondrial tRNALys associated with dystonia and stroke-like episodes.Acta Neurol Scand: 2010: 122: 252–256.© 2009 The Authors Journal compilation © 2009 Blackwell Munksgaard. Objectives – We report a novel heteroplasmic mitochondrial tRNALys mutation associated with dystonia, stroke-like episodes, sensorineural hearing loss and epilepsy in a Hungarian family. Material and methods – A 16-year-old boy, his brother and mother were investigated. Thorough clinical investigation as well as electrophysiological, neuroradiological and myopathological examinations were performed. Molecular studies included the analysis of the DYT1, DDP1/TIMM8A (deafness-dystonia peptid-1) genes and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). Results – The mtDNA analysis of the proband revealed a heteroplasmic A8332G substitution in the anticodon stem of the tRNALys gene. The mutation segregated in all affected family members. Besides this mutation 16 further mtDNA polymorphisms were detected. Complex I activity of the patient’s fibroblast cultures showed decreased activity confirming mitochondrial dysfunction. Conclusion – The novel A8332G heteroplasmic mutation is most likely a new cause of dystonia and stroke-like episodes due to mitochondrial encephalopathy. The synergistic effect of the G8697A, A11812G and T10463C single nucleotide polymorphisms may modify the phenotype.

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.
