Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The presenilins are evolutionarily conserved transmembrane proteins that regulate cleavage of certain other proteins in their transmembrane domains. The clinical significance of this regulation is shown by the contribution of presenilin mutations to 20-50% of early-onset cases of inherited Alzheimer's disease. Although the precise molecular mechanism underlying presenilin function or dysfunction remains elusive, presenilins are thought to be part of a complex of proteins that has 'gamma-secretase cleavage' activity, which is clearly central in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. Mutations in presenilins increase the production of the longer isoforms of amyloid beta peptide, which are neurotoxic and prone to self-aggregation. Biochemical studies indicate that the presenilins do not act alone but operate within large heteromeric protein complexes, whose components and enzymatic core are the subject of much study and controversy; one essential component is nicastrin. The presenilin primary sequence is remarkably well conserved in eukaryotes, suggesting some functional conservation; indeed, defects caused by mutations in the nemotode presenilin homolog can be rescued by human presenilin.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
