The epigenetic modifier DOT1L regulates gene regulatory networks necessary for cardiac patterning and cardiomyocyte cell cycle withdrawal
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ABSTRACT Mechanisms by which specific histone modifications regulate distinct gene regulatory networks remain little understood. We investigated how H3K79me2, a modification catalyzed by DOT1L and previously considered a general transcriptional activation mark, regulates gene expression in mammalian cardiogenesis. Early embryonic cardiomyocyte ablation of Dot1l revealed that H3K79me2 does not act as a general transcriptional activator, but rather regulates highly specific gene regulatory networks at two critical cardiogenic junctures: left ventricle patterning and postnatal cardiomyocyte cell cycle withdrawal. Mechanistic analyses revealed that H3K79me2 in two distinct domains, gene bodies and regulatory elements, synergized to promote expression of genes activated by DOT1L. Surprisingly, these analyses also revealed that H3K79me2 in specific regulatory elements contributed to silencing genes usually not expressed in cardiomyocytes. As DOT1L mutants had increased numbers of postnatal mononuclear cardiomyocytes and prolonged cardiomyocyte cell cycle activity, controlled inhibition of DOT1L might be a strategy to promote cardiac regeneration post-injury.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
