RASGRP4 is a key factor in KRAS activation mediated by SOS in Y1 mouse tumor cell line
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Y1 mouse adrenocortical carcinoma cell line presents amplification of the KRas oncogene and high-basal levels of KRAS-GTP mediated by the GEF SOS. In this research, we developed a dynamic model based on ordinary differential equations of the KRAS-GTP activation mediated by SOS in Y1 cells, which showed that SOS only is not sufficient to reach the high-basal levels of KRAS-GTP experimentally observed for this cell line. Interestingly, a modification in this system, which added another GEF in the model, made the model reach the expected levels of KRAS activation, leading to the hypothesis that there was a missing element in this system. To find this missing element, a PCR panel of RasGEFs was performed and the GEF Rasgrp4 was found highly expressed in parental Y1 cell lines, indicating that this was the missing element in the system. Finally, tumor growth assays in Balb/c-NUDE mice with the Y1 cell versus RASGRP4 CRISPR depleted Y1 cells, showed reduced tumor growth and frequency for the RASGRP4 depleted cells.

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.
