  • domain coordinates verified against UniProt Q92793 (CREBBP) and Q09472 (EP300) via REST API
  • corrections made (10):
    1. p53 K-site list: K386 removed — Gu 1997 explicitly states “K386 appeared completely unacetylated in comparison with the background”; list corrected to K370/K372/K373/K381/K382
    2. p53 mechanism: MDM2-displacement mechanism (K382ac competing with ubiquitination) removed from the p53 section — not in Gu 1997; attributed to “later work not directly demonstrated in Gu 1997”
    3. p53 conformational activation: fold-change quantified — “~20- to 30-fold over unmodified p53” added from paper (was unquantified in wiki)
    4. PGC-1α: 13 specific K-sites listed (K77/K144/K183/K253/K270/K277/K320/K346/K412/K441/K450/K757/K778) — wiki had “multiple acetylated lysines” without numbering
    5. PGC-1α writer attribution: explicit caveat added — “Writer identity not established by Rodgers 2005 — p300/CBP as acetyltransferase is inferred from the family’s known substrate scope, not demonstrated in this paper” — added in substrate table row, body section, AND footnote
    6. PGC-1α body: quantitative repression (nicotinamide-treated cells with hyperacetylated PGC-1α showed 24-fold repression) added; mouse age/strain (4-week-old C57Bl/6) and condition (fasted 24 h) added
    7. Petrij 1995 footnote n: “n=24” → “n=16 RSTS patients examined by protein truncation test (PTT); truncated proteins found in 2 patients” — paper never states 24; the PTT experiment is described as 16 patients
    8. Heintzman 2009 footnote: “9 cell types” → “5 human cell lines (HeLa, GM06690, K562, ES, BMP4-induced ES)” — confirmed from paper Methods

  • incidental finding (not corrected on this pass): ep300.md domain coordinates for ZZ (listed ~1723–1770; UniProt Q09472 shows 1665–1713) and TAZ2 (listed ~1834–1890; UniProt shows 1728–1809) appear incorrect — flagged for main agent propagation
  • verified flag: false → true (partial scope — see verified-scope field); ⚠️ banner removed
  • downstream pages to check (main agent):
    • molecules/proteins/p53.md — may include K386 in p53 acetylation list attributed to Gu 1997; also check for unsourced MDM2-displacement claim
    • pathways/p53-pathway.md — may inherit MDM2-displacement mechanism attributed to Gu 1997
    • molecules/proteins/pgc-1alpha.md — may attribute CBP/p300 as the acetyltransferase writer citing Rodgers 2005 (unsupported)
    • molecules/proteins/sirt1.md — same PGC-1α writer attribution issue
    • molecules/proteins/ep300.md — domain coordinate discrepancies for ZZ (1723–1770 → 1665–1713) and TAZ2 (1834–1890 → 1728–1809) per UniProt Q09472 (separate verification task needed)
  • Resolve Lu 2020 vision-restoration mouse-age minor discrepancy: SOX2 verifier said “3- and 12-month-old” for aging vision restoration; KLF4 verifier said “3- and 11-month-old”.

  • sources unverifiable — not_oa (4): Smirnova 2001 (MBC), Otera 2010 (JCB), Friedman 2011 (Science), Waterham 2007 (NEJM)
  • sources unverifiable — OA download failed (1): Cho 2009 (Science, 10.1126/science.1171091) — green OA status but 0 candidate URLs
  • UniProt O00429 verified against live REST API: domain boundaries, PTM sites, isoform count, MW all confirmed
  • corrections made (6):
    1. En1-Cre, not Nestin-Cre — brain-specific KO (Wakabayashi 2009) used engrailed-1 (En1-Cre), not Nestin-Cre. This is a material error affecting the phenotype description.
    2. Death at 36 h, not 3 weeks — En1-DrpKO mice die within 36 h of birth (neonatal lethality), not “3 weeks postnatally.” Phenotype is cerebellar developmental defect (hypoplasia, Purkinje cell loss), not progressive neurodegeneration.
    3. Mdivi-1 DRP1 Ki > 1.2 mM, not IC50 ~1–10 µM — Bordt 2017 shows human DRP1 GTPase Ki > 1.2 mM. The “IC50 ~1–10 µM” claim was for yeast Dnm1, not human DRP1. Removed from body; correct Ki added.
    4. Mdivi-1 effective concentration range: 25–100 µM, not 10–50 µM — Bordt 2017 demonstrates Complex I effects at 25 µM and above (not starting at 10 µM).
    5. Ser616 CDK1 citation attribution corrected — Chang & Blackstone 2007 covers only Ser637/PKA, not Ser616. PTM table Ser616 row now cites UniProt + PubMed IDs; Chang-Blackstone footnote restricted to Ser637.
    6. Cribbs-Strack 2007 uses rat Ser656, not human Ser637 — added explicit isoform-numbering note; rat Ser656 = human Ser637 (confirmed from paper and UniProt).
  • added no-fulltext-access tags to: Smirnova 2001 claims, Otera 2010 claims, Friedman 2011 claims, Waterham 2007 claims, Cho 2009 claims
  • gaps remaining unsourced: CDK5/Ser616 in AD neurons, alpha-syn/DRP1 direct interaction, age-dependent pSer616/pSer637 ratio in mouse brain
  • downstream pages to check: alzheimers-disease.md, parkinsons-disease.md, mitophagy.md, mitofusins.md — may carry Mdivi-1 specificity claims without the Bordt 2017 Complex I caveat; also check for Nestin-Cre / En1-Cre confusion

    • Twig 2008 — verified on drp1.md R12
    • Bordt 2017 — verified on drp1.md R12
    • Frezza 2006 — verified on opa1.md R10d and cytochrome-c.md
    • Otera 2010 / Friedman 2011 — remain not_oa; carry no-fulltext-access on drp1.md
  • cross-link integrity: all 6 implicit stubs (mff, fis1, mid49, mid51, oma1, yme1l) confirmed slug-consistent with drp1.md and opa1.md; no slug drift; 10 remaining wikilinks all resolve to existing files
  • provenance audit: Mdivi-1 Ki >1.2 mM, 80–85% cristae cytochrome c, DRP1-K38A apoptosis delay, Twig 2008 fission-then-mitophagy model, disease associations — all correctly attributed to their atomic-page sources
  • corrections made (2):
    1. Frank 2001 apoptosis-delay quantified: “significantly delays caspase activation and cell death” → “significantly delays mitochondrial cytochrome c release and apoptotic cell death: 77% Drp1_wt COS-7 cells TUNEL+ at 10h vs 19% K38A; anti-Drp1 microinjection in HeLa reduces apoptosis from 86% to 17% at 20h” — exact numbers from PDF; mechanism more precisely described (cytochrome c retention confirmed in Fig 6C/D)
    2. Karbowski 2002 MFN2 co-localization added: body text only mentioned BAX/DRP1 co-localization; paper’s title and main finding is that MFN2 also co-localizes with BAX foci — 92% ± 10.5% of Mfn2 clusters (n=847) co-localized with Bax, 68% ± 10% of Bax clusters (n=1,238) with Mfn2. Added to Apoptosis crosstalk Stage 1.
  • DOI correction confirmed: Karbowski 2002 DOI 10.1083/jcb.200209124 is correct; seeder’s note about wrong DOI 10.1083/jcb.200204140 verified — page already carried the corrected DOI; footnote now annotated with confirmation.
  • footnotes updated: frank2001 and karbowski2002 moved from “pending” to “verified” with PDF details.
  • ⚠️ banner removed; verified: true; scope documented in verified-scope field.
  • downstream propagation needed (main agent):
    • mitofusins.md (drafted R10c) — Karbowski 2002 finding that MFN2 co-localizes with BAX foci at apoptotic fission sites is directly relevant to the MFN2 apoptosis-crosstalk section; consider adding Karbowski 2002 citation there
    • No other atomic pages appear to duplicate the specific numerical claims corrected here

[2026-05-05] verify — molecules/proteins/b2m.md

Pages verified: 1

  • molecules/proteins/b2m.md — 6 substantive corrections; verified: true (partial scope — canonical-DB identity fields NCBI Gene/HGNC/Ensembl not independently re-queried)

Sources checked (all verified against local PDFs):

  • doi:10.1038/nm.3898 (Smith 2015, Nat Med 21(8):932–937) — downloaded from PMC4529371; read end-to-end (8 pages incl. methods)
  • doi:10.1038/329506a0 (Bjorkman 1987, Nature 329:506–512) — local PDF; read end-to-end (4 pages); DOI 329506a0 confirmed correct

  • UniProt P61769 — REST API query for disulfide bond coordinates (Cys25–Cys80 confirmed)

Corrections applied:

  1. Disulfide bond WRONG — “Cys45–Cys100” → “Cys25–Cys80 in precursor numbering (positions 5 and 60 of the mature 99 aa chain)”; confirmed by UniProt P61769 REST API and Bjorkman 1987 Fig. 3 secondary structure diagram
  2. B2M dose WRONG by 1000-fold — “100 mg/kg” → “100 μg/kg” (micrograms not milligrams); Smith 2015 Methods section explicit: “100 ug/kg” via intraorbital injection
  3. Anti-B2M antibody arm FABRICATED — Smith 2015 does not include a systemic anti-B2M antibody treatment arm; this finding appears nowhere in the paper; removed the fabricated bullet; replaced with accurate summary of what the paper shows (genetic B2m deletion in 17-month aged mice)
  4. MHC-I independence claim INVERTED — wiki stated effects are “independent of MHC-I antigen presentation per se”; Smith 2015 shows the opposite: Tap1-/- mice (lacking surface MHC-I) are PROTECTED from B2M-induced cognitive/neurogenic impairment, implicating MHC-I as a required mediator; corrected throughout
  5. Mechanism section expanded with primary data — Added Zhong 2020 TLR4/NF-κB axis with verified quantitative data (n=10/subgroup behavioral; n=6/subgroup molecular; IL-1β/TNF-α elevations; BrdU+/NeuN+/DCX+ neurogenesis counts); clarified that MHC-I (Smith 2015) and TLR4 (Zhong 2020) axes both have experimental support but their relationship is unresolved
  6. Footnotes substantially upgraded — Smith 2015 footnote: added exact dose (100 μg/kg), aged mouse age (17 months for KO arm, 18 months for other arms), sex (all male), key quantitative results, and Tap1-/- finding; Zhong 2020: added n values, behavioral test (MWM not RAWM), cytokine and neurogenesis quantitation; Villeda 2011: added full factor list (CCL2, CCL11, CCL12, CCL19, Haptoglobin, B2M), volume/journal info; Bjorkman 1987: DOI correction confirmed, full author list added

GrimAge component confirmed: B2M is one of 7 plasma protein DNAm surrogates (Lu 2019 Fig. 1 explicit); list matches grimage-2019.md verified page; no corrections needed to GrimAge section.

Villeda 2011 context confirmed: B2M listed by name in paper text as one of 6 factors elevated across both normal aging and heterochronic parabiosis conditions; CCL11 was primary candidate functionally tested.

Downstream pages for main agent propagation:

  • No pages currently carry Smith 2015 as a footnote source for specific factual claims; corrections are self-contained within b2m.md
  • If any intervention page cites “Smith 2015 anti-B2M antibody treatment in aged mice” — that claim is fabricated and must be removed

Corrections:

  1. Arking 2002 cohort: “525 Ashkenazi Jewish individuals” → three-population study: Bohemian Czechs (n=805), Baltimore Caucasians (n=1,143), Baltimore African-Americans (n=468) — Ashkenazi Jewish cohort does not appear anywhere in the paper
  2. Arking 2002 effect size: “~3-year increase in life expectancy” → removed; paper reports no such absolute figure; corrected to 1.43-fold (95% CI 1.02–2.01) survival advantage to age 75 (Czech cohort, P=0.036)
  3. Dubal 2014 age range: “53–86” → “52–85” (paper’s stated inclusion range)

  5. Population caveat: removed claim that “both Arking studies used Ashkenazi Jewish cohorts exclusively” — Arking 2002 used no Ashkenazi cohort; Arking 2005 population not independently verifiable (closed-access)
  6. Druggability-tier: null → 3 (Open Targets API confirmed; no approved drug, biologic surface accessibility predicted)

Liu 2007 attribution (10.1126/science.1143578 = “Augmented Wnt Signaling in a Mammalian Model of Accelerated Aging”, Liu H. et al.) — confirmed correct via Crossref.

Corrections:

  1. Proteomics screen numbers: “~50 proteins elevated in old blood” → 66 measured; 17 correlated with neurogenesis decline; 15 elevated in heterochronic parabionts; 6-factor intersection priority list (CCL2, CCL11, CCL12, CCL19, Haptoglobin, B2M)

Corrections applied:

  1. Inhibitor name: “(compound not commercially named in the Park 2017 paper)” → “NU7441 (40 mg/kg/day oral gavage, up to 12 weeks)” — NU7441 is named extensively throughout the paper including STAR methods; this was a fabricated claim of anonymity
  2. Genetic model: “Genetic reduction of DNA-PKcs activity (hypomorphic allele)” → two explicit models: SCID mice (B6.CB17-Prkdc^scid/SzJ leaky nonsense mutation) and muscle-specific conditional KO (MDPKO, DNA-PKcs^fl/fl x MCK-Cre); the term “hypomorphic allele” does not appear in the paper
  3. n values: footnote “~8-12/group” → per-experiment ranges: n=10/group (HFD weight/glucose); n=8/group (treadmill); n=3-6/group (Western blot quantification); n=4-5/group (rhesus CR); lower-n experiments were systematically missed by the original approximation
  4. Structural method: “A 2017 cryo-EM structure” → “A 2017 X-ray crystallography study (selenomethionine-labeled; 4.3 A resolution)” — Chirgadze/Sibanda 2017 is an X-ray crystallography paper (ESRF beamline ID29/ID23); cryo-EM is not used in the paper

Ku ring nucleolytic-protection claim over-attributed to Walker 2001: Walker is a structural paper and does not biochemically demonstrate nuclease protection; removed unsupported attribution; tagged unsourced with note that Feldmann 2000 (Nucleic Acids Res 28:2585) is the relevant biochemical source
  2. LIG4 syndrome disease table: “Microcephaly, growth retardation, pancytopenia, radiosensitivity, lymphoma predisposition [^riballo1999]” was wrong for Riballo 1999; Riballo 1999 describes one hypomorphic patient with radiosensitivity and leukemia predisposition but NO overt immunodeficiency and near-normal V(D)J recombination; corrected entry; full syndrome features re-attributed to later case series with unsourced pending O’Driscoll 2001 citation

Corrections applied:

  1. MutLβ subunit composition: “MLH1 + MLH3” → “MLH1 + PMS1” — Jiricny 2006 Table 1 explicitly lists MutLβ = MLH1 + PMS1 (function unknown); MLH1 + MLH3 is MutLγ, not MutLβ
  2. MutLβ/MutLγ function description: separated into two complexes per Jiricny Table 1; MutLγ (MLH1+MLH3) correctly attributed as meiotic + MutLα backup; MutLβ (MLH1+PMS1) function noted as “currently unknown”
  3. MutSβ substrate range: “Larger IDLs (2–13 nt); D-loops” → “Larger IDLs (>2 nt)” with needs-replication — Jiricny 2006 does not state the 2–13 nt upper bound or list D-loops as a MutSβ substrate per Table 1

  2. Farmer 2005 footnote cell lines: “MDA-MB-436, EUFA423” → “mouse ES cells with homozygous Brca1 or Brca2 deletion (isogenic WT controls)” — those human lines do not appear in Farmer 2005

Corrections:

  1. Mouse model identity (Niedernhofer 2006): “Ercc1-/delta allelic series — compound heterozygote” → “Ercc1-/- knockout”; the compound heterozygote Ercc1^Δ/− is the Vermeij 2016 model; Niedernhofer 2006 uses Ercc1-/- nulls
  2. “retains ~10% of normal ERCC1 protein level” removed from Niedernhofer section — this ~15% transcript figure is from Weeda 1997 (Ercc1*292 allele), not Niedernhofer 2006
  3. Niedernhofer 2006 progeroid feature list corrected: “loss of cerebellar Purkinje cells” removed (not in Niedernhofer 2006; this is Vermeij 2016); “elevated glucocorticoids” removed (not in paper); “hematopoietic failure (anemia, reduced HSC self-renewal)” simplified to “bone marrow abnormalities” per paper; added paper-attested features: dystonia/ataxia, kyphosis, renal insufficiency; somatotropic axis data given with exact p-values (IGF-1 P<0.001, insulin P<0.03, glucose P<0.001)
  4. Niedernhofer 2006 mechanistic framing: “endogenous oxidative DNA damage” → “endogenous DNA damage (particularly cytotoxic interstrand crosslinks)” per paper’s own hypothesis
  5. Vermeij 2016 section fully rewritten with verified numbers: males 10→35 wk (250%; p<0.0001), females 13→39 wk (200%; p<0.0001); replication cohort 180% (p<0.0001); ~50% neuron retention; γH2AX foci reduction in Purkinje cells; Xpg-/- extension data added; DR protocol corrected (week 7 start at 10%, reaching 30% by week 9 — not “from weaning”)
  6. Vermeij 2016 hedge “exact figures require PDF verification” removed; “(single study)” gap tag updated to specify intra-group replication only
  7. Jaspers 2007 NER residual activity: “20–30% residual activity” → “UDS (GG-NER) 15% of normal; TC-NER 13% of normal”
  8. Jaspers 2007 patient description: “cataracts” → “bilateral microphthalmia and blepharophimosis” (cataracts not reported); mutations specified (Q158X + F231L); age at death corrected to 14 months; cause of death (respiratory failure) added
  9. McWhir 1993 DOI confirmed correct (10.1038/ng1193-217); “ng1093-217” alternate form resolves to nothing
  10. All three newly-downloaded footnotes updated from “download status: pending” to “PDF locally available; verified”; Weeda 1997 model description corrected to Ercc1*292 truncation specifics

Corrections:

  1. Long-patch BER resynthesis length “2–12 nt” → “2–10 nt” (Krokan 2013 p.8 explicitly: “a gap of 2–10 nucleotides”)
  2. MUTYH glycosylase classification: removed from bifunctional category — Krokan 2013 Table 1 marks MUTYH as monofunctional (“M”); it excises adenine mispaired with 8-oxoG but has NO lyase activity; note added to Step 1 section
  3. PARP1 role in BER overstated: removed claim that PARP1 “recruits the XRCC1–LIG3 ligation complex to the nick” — Krokan 2013 explicitly states PARP1 role in short-patch BER is “unsettled”; PARP1 is properly characterized as a SSBR sensor with overlap at nick intermediates, not a canonical BER co-factor for all lesion types
  4. LIG1 vs LIG3 in short-patch BER: updated table and Step 4 text — LIG1 is now the major nuclear ligase for short-patch BER (per Krokan 2013 citing Simsek 2011, Gao 2011); LIG3 is essential in mitochondria; prior table showed LIG3 as the short-patch nuclear ligase
  5. Mitochondrial BER exclusivity overstated: intro and body text changed from “the only repair pathway operating on mtDNA” → “dominant and best-characterized”; de Souza-Pinto 2008 explicitly states mitochondria also have recombination and direct damage reversal
  6. XRCC1 in mitochondria: table entry changed from “Disputed; possibly absent” → “Absent from mitochondria” — de Souza-Pinto 2008 explicitly confirms XRCC1 is absent; LIG3α functions without it in the mitochondrial matrix
  7. Gredilla 2010 hippocampus claim: “declines with age in mouse brain cortex and hippocampus” → cortex decline was significant (p≤0.003); hippocampus showed only minor changes; added age groups (1, 5, 10, 15–20 months)
  8. Gredilla 2012 AD model claim: removed statement that BER declined in “Alzheimer’s disease models” — 3xTgAD mice showed NO significant BER changes at either pre-symptomatic or symptomatic ages; synaptosomal decline is a feature of normal aging only
  9. Fang & Bohr 2016 attribution: clarified that this paper is a 2-page ATM-specific commentary, not a general BER-PARP1 review; NAD+ axis in paper operates via ATM → PARP1 → SIRT1 → mitophagy in ATM-deficient cells, not general BER→PARP1

Unverifiable claims:

  • molecules/proteins/parp1.md (R19 batch, verified 2026-05-05) — cites PARP1 in BER; parp1.md correctly characterizes PARP1 as a SSBR sensor and notes BER role is unsettled; consistent with corrected BER page; no propagation needed
  • MUTYH correction (monofunctional reclassification): check if molecules/proteins/mutyh.md describes MUTYH as bifunctional; if so, that page needs correction to match Krokan 2013

Verification scope (per CLAUDE.md verified-scope: partial-verification convention): DOI sanity-check via. Of ~75 unique cited DOIs across the batch, 73 had DOI lookup titles matching the cited author/year/topic. Two DOIs unresolved in archive but already documented in the source pages: 10.1038/8484 (Tao 1999, Hippo) and 10.1073/pnas.2518812123 (Götz 2026, GCN2 fly). One DOI confirmed-mismatch and explicitly flagged in body: 10.1126/science.273.5275.622 (Marigo 1996 PTCH cloning) → resolves to a prion paper, hedgehog page leaves as needs-canonical-id. Cross-link integrity confirmed against verified atomic pages (satellite-cells, hematopoietic-stem-cells, klotho).

Carlson 2008 DOI conflict resolution:

  • Confirmed via DOI lookup: 10.1038/nature07034 = “Imbalance between pSmad3 and Notch induces CDK inhibitors in old muscle stem cells” (Carlson, Hsu, Conboy 2008 Nature) — CORRECT.
  • Confirmed via DOI lookup: 10.1038/nature06849 = “Free choice activates a decision circuit between frontal and parietal cortex” (Desmurget Nature — neuroscience, NOT Carlson) — INCORRECT.
  • smad2-smad3.md uses correct DOI (10.1038/nature07034); banner note retained in verified-scope for posterity.

Corrections applied (cross-page propagation):

  1. Added Carlson 2008 (10.1038/nature07034) citation to pathways/tgf-beta.md — previously cited only Carlson 2009 (Aging Cell, 10.1111/j.1474-9726.2009.00517.x); the foundational mechanistic paper was missing. Now cited alongside Carlson 2009 in the satellite cells aging section, with cross-link to smad2-smad3 for molecular detail.
  2. Fixed broken wikilink [[tgf-beta-pathway]][[tgf-beta]] in pathways/hippo-yap-taz.md (line 212) and molecules/proteins/yap-taz.md (line 140). Previously tagged as stub but the actual file pathways/tgf-beta.md exists (R20 seeded).
  3. Fixed broken wikilink [[wnt-signaling]][[wnt-beta-catenin]] in pathways/bmp-signaling.md (line 183).
  4. Fixed broken wikilink [[perk-pathway]][[perk]] in molecules/proteins/atf4.md (frontmatter pathways: field and Pathway membership section). The protein page molecules/proteins/perk.md is the canonical PERK target; no pathways/perk-pathway.md file exists or should exist (PERK is a kinase node within the ISR/UPR pathways, not its own pathway).

Cross-page propagation gaps (NOT addressed; flagged for next pass):

  • hallmarks/stem-cell-exhaustion.md Signaling pathways table currently lists only [[notch-pathway]] and [[mtor]] etc.; should be enriched with [[wnt-beta-catenin]], [[tgf-beta]], [[bmp-signaling]], [[hedgehog-pathway]], [[hippo-yap-taz]] now that all five are seeded and verified. Out of scope for verifier sweep; flag for R21 propagation pass.
  • hallmarks/loss-of-proteostasis.md does not yet reference the ISR/PERK/GCN2/eIF2α/ATF4 axis; should be propagated. Out of scope; flag for R21.
  • cell-types/satellite-cells.md and cell-types/hematopoietic-stem-cells.md may have stale claims overlapping with the new pathway pages; surface checks (grep for tgf-beta/wnt-beta-catenin/notch-pathway in these MOCs) suggest cross-references already exist but quantitative claims about niche signaling were not re-validated against the new pages. Flag for R21.
