A 132 bp deletion affecting the <i>KCNQ1OT1</i> gene associated with Silver-Russell syndrome clinical phenotype
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Imprinting centre 2 (IC2) in the chromosomal region 11p15.5 regulates the monoallelic expression of imprinted genes by differential methylation of paternal and maternal chromosomes. Copy number variants in IC2 are associated with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome and Silver-Russell syndrome (SRS). Clinical outcome of IC2 deletions seems to depend on the parental origin of the chromosome, deletion size and inclusion or exclusion of enhancer and promoter regions. RESULTS: gene was found in a proband with an SRS clinical phenotype. The patient's father and paternal grandmother, who both carry the deletion on their maternal chromosome, are unaffected. Review of other IC2 deletions and their associated clinical presentation was useful in understanding the genetic-phenotypic correlation. CONCLUSION: Only six cases have been reported with deletions involving exclusively IC2, one being identical to our proband's 132 bp deletion. Our study, which is based on more extensive segregation data than the previous 132 bp deletion report, confirms the association of this deletion with growth restriction when paternally inherited. Remarkably, even though our patient has the same deletion, he has more pronounced phenotypic features; our findings thus suggest that some degree of clinical variability may be associated with this loss.

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.
