Disease-specific U1 spliceosomal RNA mutations in mature B-cell neoplasms
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Recurrent mutations in the third base of U1 spliceosomal RNA responsible for marked splicing and expression abnormalities have been described in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and some solid tumors. However, the clinical significance of these mutations in large and independent CLL cohorts as well as their presence in other B-cell neoplasms is unknown. Here we characterized U1 mutations in 1670 CLL and 363 mature B-cell lymphomas. We confirmed that the g.3A>C U1 mutation is found in 3.5% of CLL, which conferred rapid disease progression independently of the main biological and clinical prognostic markers of the disease. Additionally, a recurrent g.9C>T mutation was found in 1.5% of CLL causing downstream splicing alterations and associated with adverse prognosis. We also identified a g.4C>T mutation in 10% of diffuse large B-cell lymphomas of the germinal center subtype and a g.7A>G mutation in 30% of EBV-negative Burkitt lymphomas, both of which altered the splicing pattern of multiple genes. This study reveals novel, recurrent, and tumor-specific U1 mutations in mature B-cell neoplasms with biological and prognostic implications, thus establishing U1 as a novel pan-B-cell malignancy driver gene.

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.
