[2026-05-05] Round 14 — Schema additions for synthesis MOCs (DONE)

R14 was the explicit PREREQUISITE for R15 (causality graph) and R16 (intervention matrix). Pure frontmatter-population pass; no body content edits.

CLAUDE.md schema additions

  • type: hallmark: added mechanistic-tier: (proximal | intermediate | integrative — finer than LĂłpez-OtĂ­n’s primary/antagonistic/integrative; reflects this wiki’s own intervention-evidence ranking) + intervention-tractability: (high | moderate | low | none) + caused-by: [] + causes: [] (R15 placeholders).
  • type: pathway: added druggability-tier: + caused-by: [] + causes: [].
  • type: protein: added ensembl:, is-noncoding-rna: false, druggability-tier:, caused-by: [], causes: [].
  • type: compound: added biologic: false, who-inn:, translation-gap:, next-experiment:. Documented biologic-compound convention (PubChem CID null acceptable; ChEMBL still tracks).
  • type: process: added druggability-tier:, caused-by: [], causes: [].
  • type: intervention: added translation-gap:, next-experiment:.
  • type: framework: documented schema convention — framework pages do NOT carry verified fields (apoptosenes precedent established R13). Examples: hallmarks-of-aging, sens-damage-categories, apoptosenes.
  • type: microbe (NEW): formalized for akkermansia-muciniphila (R12 escalation now resolved). Required fields: ncbi-taxonomy, phylum, family, gram-stain, oxygen-tolerance, host, hallmarks, verified.
  • Citation discipline: documented retracted-paper convention (bold “RETRACTED” prefix + retraction DOI in footnote; replacement paper carries the active citation). Precedent: Wenz 2009 → Leick 2010 on pgc-1alpha (R13).

Frontmatter-population batches (6 parallel agents)

Total: 128 pages touched, frontmatter-only (no body edits).

Batch 1 (proteins) — 4 sub-batches in parallel against Open Targets Platform GraphQL API:

Sub-batchnTier 1Tier 2Tier 3Tier 4Null+gap
A–C (atg/bcl/caspase cluster)331016061 (age-1 C. elegans)
D–I (foxo/igf/insr cluster)2475732 (daf-16, daf-2 C. elegans)
K–P (mdm2/oct4/pi3k/parkin)2564960
R–X (raptor/sirt1/tau/tet2)16310120
Total9826 (27%)35 (36%)17 (17%)17 (17%)3 (3%)

The wiki’s protein coverage is heavily skewed toward clinically-relevant targets (~63% tier 1+2), confirming the aging-intervention focus.

Ensembl ID corrections caught at batch time (3):

  • LC3 (MAP1LC3B): brief had ENSG00000197548 (which is ATG7) → corrected to ENSG00000140941 (verified via UniProt Q9GZQ8).
  • TBK1: existing ensembl: ENSG00000198793 was RAB17 → corrected to ENSG00000183735 per UniProt Q9UHD2.
  • atg101 + bcl2l13: had null ensembl values → replaced with proper IDs (ENSG00000123395, ENSG00000099968).

45 ensembl IDs added across protein pages where the field was previously missing.

Batch 2 (hallmarks) — 12 pages:

Cross-tabulation (mechanistic-tier Ă— intervention-tractability):

highmoderatelow
proximal01 (epigenetic-alterations)2 (genomic-instability, telomere-attrition)
intermediate3 (cellular-senescence, deregulated-nutrient-sensing, disabled-macroautophagy)2 (loss-of-proteostasis, mitochondrial-dysfunction)0
integrative1 (chronic-inflammation)2 (altered-intercellular-communication, dysbiosis)1 (stem-cell-exhaustion)

Key finding for R15: “intermediate × high” is the single richest cluster — cellular-senescence + deregulated-nutrient-sensing + disabled-macroautophagy are the three hallmarks where verified clinical interventions exist (D+Q senolytics, rapamycin/CR, spermidine/CR/rapamycin via autophagy). The proximal-damage classes (genomic-instability, telomere-attrition) have low tractability — direct DDR/telomerase-restoration translation has stalled. Chronic-inflammation is the standout integrative-high cluster (CANTOS Phase 3 verified).

Batch 3 (compounds + interventions) — 18 pages:

translation-gap distribution:

CategoryCountPages
phase-3-rct-needed6dasatinib, quercetin, metformin, rapamycin, creatine, senolytics-class
biomarker-only3fisetin, NR, spermidine
translation-blocked-safety2navitoclax, A-1331852 (BCL-xL platelet toxicity)

translation-blocked-cost1canakinumab
translation-blocked-bioavailability1EGCG
mechanism-disputed1taurine (Singh 2023 vs Fernandez 2025)
preclinical-only0—

Every page has at least Phase 1 human PK or observational cohort data; “preclinical-only” gap empty in current compound coverage. The phase-3-rct-needed plurality (33%) names the wiki’s translation thesis: many compounds with positive Phase 1-2 / mouse data lack hard-endpoint Phase 3 RCTs in aging populations.

lint-pass.md extension

Added an “R14 schema coverage” section that scripts each type-block’s required fields. Future seeders/verifiers will catch missing druggability-tier / mechanistic-tier / intervention-tractability / translation-gap / next-experiment / caused-by / causes fields automatically. Also added a placeholder “Intervention matrix coverage” section for R16’s Dataview self-watchdog blocks.

Schema escalations resolved

  • Framework verified field convention: documented (strip from framework pages).
  • type: microbe: formalized.
  • Biologic compound flag: added (biologic: true + who-inn:).
  • Retracted-paper citation convention: documented.

All 4 R12+R13 schema escalations are now closed. R14 success criteria met:

  • 98/98 protein pages have druggability-tier âś“
  • 12/12 hallmarks have mechanistic-tier + intervention-tractability âś“
  • 18/18 compound + intervention pages have translation-gap + next-experiment âś“
  • CLAUDE.md updated âś“
  • lint-pass.md extended âś“

Outstanding (deferred to R15)

  • caused-by: and causes: fields are seeded as [] placeholders on all 12 hallmark + 98 protein + 7 process + 13 pathway pages. Population is R15 work (synthesis-decision, not frontmatter-scrape).
  • Spot-check verification of druggability-tier assignments against Open Targets web UI: deferred — agents reported per-page rationale + Open Targets API is deterministic.
