Abstract
Mosaicism—the existence of genetically distinct populations of cells in a particular organism—is an important cause of genetic disease. Mosaicism can appear as de novo DNA mutations, epigenetic alterations of DNA, and chromosomal abnormalities. Neurodevelopmental or neuropsychiatric diseases, including autism—often arise by de novo mutations that usually not present in either of the parents. De novo mutations might occur as early as in the parental germline, during embryonic, fetal development, and/or post-natally, through ageing and life. Mutation timing could lead to mutation burden of less than heterozygosity to approaching homozygosity. Developmental timing of somatic mutation attainment will affect the mutation load and distribution throughout the body. In this review, we discuss the timing of de novo mutations, spanning from mutations in the germ lineage (all ages), to post-zygotic, embryonic, fetal, and post-natal events, through aging to death. These factors can determine the tissue specific distribution and load of de novo mutations, which can affect disease. The disease threshold burden of somatic de novo mutations of a particular gene in any tissue will be important to define.

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 it
