Defining the single base importance of human mRNAs and lncRNAs
Bibliographic record
Abstract
As the fundamental unit of a gene and its transcripts, nucleotides have enormous impacts on the gene function and evolution, and thus on phenotypes and diseases. In order to identify the key nucleotides of one specific gene, it is quite crucial to quantitatively measure the importance of each base on the gene. However, there are still no sequence-based methods of doing that. Here, we proposed Base Importance Calculator (BIC), an algorithm to calculate the importance score of each single base based on sequence information of human mRNAs and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs). We then confirmed its power by applying BIC to three different tasks. Firstly, we revealed that BIC can effectively evaluate the pathogenicity of both genes and single bases through single nucleotide variations. Moreover, the BIC score in The Cancer Genome Atlas somatic mutations is able to predict the prognosis of some cancers. Finally, we show that BIC can also precisely predict the transmissibility of SARS-CoV-2. The above results indicate that BIC is a useful tool for evaluating the single base importance of human mRNAs and lncRNAs.

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.
