Nuclear microtubule filaments mediate non-linear directional motion of chromatin and promote DNA repair
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Damaged DNA shows increased mobility, which can promote interactions with repair-conducive nuclear pore complexes (NPCs). This apparently random mobility is paradoxically abrogated upon disruption of microtubules or kinesins, factors that typically cooperate to mediate the directional movement of macromolecules. Here, we resolve this paradox by uncovering DNA damage-inducible intranuclear microtubule filaments (DIMs) that mobilize damaged DNA and promote repair. Upon DNA damage, relief of centromeric constraint induces DIMs that cooperate with the Rad9 DNA damage response mediator and Kar3 kinesin motor to capture DNA lesions, which then linearly move along dynamic DIMs. Decreasing and hyper-inducing DIMs respectively abrogates and hyper-activates repair. Accounting for DIM dynamics across cell populations by measuring directional changes of damaged DNA reveals that it exhibits increased non-linear directional behavior in nuclear space. Abrogation of DIM-dependent processes or repair-promoting factors decreases directional behavior. Thus, inducible and dynamic nuclear microtubule filaments directionally mobilize damaged DNA and promote repair.

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.
