Dissecting the roles of the Tuberin protein in the subcellular localization of the G2/M Cyclin, Cyclin B1
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Tuberin is a major component of the protein regulatory complex known as the Tuberous Sclerosis Complex and plays a crucial role in cell cycle progression and protein synthesis. Mutations in the Tuberin gene, TSC2, lead to the formation of benign tumors in many organ systems and causes the Tuberous Sclerosis Complex disorder. Genotypes ranging from point mutations to large deletions in the TSC2 gene have been clinically characterized with a wide range of phenotypes from skin tumors to large brain tumors. Our lab has previously demonstrated that Tuberin can directly bind and regulate the timing of nuclear transport of the G2/M cyclin, Cyclin B1. Herein we study the consequence of one clinically relevant truncation in the Tuberin protein on cell cycle function. We demonstrate that exogenous expression of a fragment of the N-term region of Tuberin alters the subcellular localization of Cyclin B1 and increases cell proliferation. This adds to our body of information about the residues within Tuberin responsible for regulating the cytoplasmic retention of Cyclin B1 and supports the phenotypic data seen in the clinic with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex patients harbouring similar large deletions in Tuberin.

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.
