ANKRD46

Chr 8

ankyrin repeat domain 46

Also known as: ANK-S, GENX-115279

This gene encodes a protein containing multiple ankyrin repeats that mediate protein-protein interactions in various cellular processes. Mutations cause autosomal recessive intellectual disability with seizures and spastic paraplegia. The gene shows moderate constraint against loss-of-function variants (LOEUF 0.597), consistent with its role in neurodevelopmental disorders.
