A Novel GDAP1 Mutation P78L Responsible for CMT4A Disease in Three Moroccan Families
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: The gene encoding the ganglioside-induced-differentiation-associated protein 1 (GDAP1) has been associated with both axonal and demyelinating neuropathy. Up to date, 25 mutations in the GDAP1 gene have been reported in patients from different origins. METHODS: Three Moroccan families with early onset ARCMT1 and autosomal recessive inheritance were genotyped to test linkage to 8q21.3 and their GDAP1 gene coding exons screened for mutations. RESULTS: A novel C233T transversion at codon 78 (P78L) was detected in 6 patients from 3 unrelated families. The mutation was found to be homozygous in two families and compound heterozygous in association with the already reported S194X mutation in one family. The P78L mutation was associated with a common haplotype suggesting a Moroccan founder mutation. The patients had symptoms within the two first years of life and developed common phenotype of CMT4A with evident hoarse-voice in two cases with the longer disease duration. CONCLUSION: P78L mutation was associated with a common haplotype suggesting a common ancestor.

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.
