Functional and genetic studies demonstrate that mutation in the COX15 gene can cause Leigh syndrome
Bibliographic record
Abstract
eigh syndrome is a subacute necrotising encephalomyelopathy characterised by delayed onset of symptoms, hypotonia, feeding difficulties, failure to thrive, motor regression, and brain stem signs. The main laboratory findings are raised lactate in the blood and cerebrospinal fluid, but the diagnosis is only confirmed by the presence of bilateral symmetrical lesions in the basal ganglia, thalamus, brain stem, and cerebellum. Leigh syndrome can result from a number of different defects in mitochondrial energy metabolism, most commonly deficiencies of cytochrome oxidase (COX), pyruvate dehydrogenase, NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase (Complex I) and ATP synthase. 1 In patients with Leigh syndrome and cytochrome oxidase deficiency, the underlying genetic defect is usually a mutation in the SURF1 gene, which maps to chromosome 9q34 and encodes a cytochrome oxidase assembly factor. 23 In a small number of cases, Leigh syndrome and cytochrome oxidase deficiency have been found in patients with mutations in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) 45 and in one patient with mutations in the COX10 gene. 6

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.
