Family with primary periodic paralysis and a mutation in <i>MCM3AP</i>, a gene implicated in mRNA transport
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ABSTRACT Introduction : Primary periodic paralyses (PPs) are rare genetic neuromuscular disorders commonly caused by mutations in genes related to ion channel function. However, 10%–20% of cases remain as genetically unexplained. Herein we present a family with PP with paralytic episodes generally lasting for 1–7 days at a time, associated with a drop in K + levels. Methods : Screening for mutations in known disease‐causing genes was negative, hence we performed whole‐exome sequencing of 5 family members. Results : Minichromosome maintenance 3–associated protein ( MCM3AP ) c.2615G>A (p.C872Y) was found to cosegregate with disease in the family and was not present in control subjects. The mutation is novel, highly conserved across multiple species, and predicted to be damaging. Discussion : MCM3AP encodes germinal center–associated nuclear protein (GANP), a protein involved in the export of certain messenger RNAs from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. Our findings suggest that a novel mutation in MCM3AP is associated with hypokalemic PP. Muscle Nerve , 2019

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.
