A new mutation (G51C) in the iron‐responsive element (IRE) of <scp>l</scp>‐ferritin associated with hyperferritinaemia–cataract syndrome decreases the binding affinity of the mutated IRE for iron‐regulatory proteins
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Hereditary hyperferritinaemia-cataract syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by a constitutively increased synthesis of L-ferritin in the absence of iron overload. The disorder is associated with point mutations in the iron-responsive element (IRE) of L-ferritin mRNA. We report a new mutation, G51C, identified in two members of a Canadian family, presenting a moderate increase in serum ferritin and a clinically silent bilateral cataract. Gel retardation assays showed that the binding of the mutated IRE to iron-regulatory proteins (IRPs) was reduced compared with the wild type. Structural modelling predicted that the G51C induces a rearrangement of base pairing at the lateral bulge of the IRE structure which is likely to modify IRE conformation.

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.
