ANKRD6

Chr 6

ankyrin repeat domain 6

NCBI Gene: 22881ENSG00000135299UniProt: Q9Y2G4

Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of canonical Wnt signaling pathway; positive regulation of JNK cascade; and protein targeting to chloroplast. Predicted to act upstream of or within positive regulation of Wnt signaling pathway, planar cell polarity pathway. Located in intracellular membrane-bounded organelle.

Population Genetics & Constraint

gnomAD v4 — loss-of-function & missense intolerance

gnomAD
Tolerant — LoF & missense variants common in population
LoF Constraint?LOEUF (Loss-of-function Observed/Expected Upper bound Fraction) is the upper bound of the 90% CI for LoF OE — the preferred gnomAD v4 metric. Lower = more intolerant to LoF. LOEUF < 0.35 = highly constrained.

Typical tolerance to LoF variation

Missense Constraint?Missense Z-score: standard deviations fewer missense variants observed vs. expected. Z > 3.09 (p < 0.001) = gene does not tolerate missense variation. OE missense < 0.6 is also considered constrained.
