ADAMTS17

Chr 15AR

ADAM metallopeptidase with thrombospondin type 1 motif 17

The protein is a metalloproteinase that cleaves extracellular matrix components and is highly intolerant to loss-of-function variants (LOEUF 0.732). Biallelic mutations cause Weill-Marchesani syndrome type 4, characterized by ocular abnormalities including ectopia lentis, spherophakia, glaucoma, and lenticular myopia, along with short stature. This follows autosomal recessive inheritance.

The Badonyi & Marsh prediction model was trained exclusively on dominant disease genes. Predictions are not reliable for genes with autosomal recessive inheritance and are shown at reduced opacity for reference only.
