ARHGAP21
Chr 10Rho GTPase activating protein 21
Also known as: ARHGAP10
ARHGAP21 functions as a GTPase-activating protein (GAP) for CDC42 and RHOA, regulating actin dynamics at the Golgi apparatus and adherens junctions. Mutations cause autosomal recessive intellectual disability with macrocephaly, seizures, and spasticity. This gene is highly constrained against loss-of-function variants, indicating intolerance to protein-disrupting mutations.
Population Genetics & Constraint
gnomAD v4 — loss-of-function & missense intolerance
Highly LoF-intolerant (top ~10% of genes)
Mild missense constraint
The highest-scoring mechanism for this gene is loss-of-function (haploinsufficiency).
Predictions from Badonyi M, Marsh JA. PLoS ONE. 2024;19(8):e0307312. Mechanism ranking also informed by gnomAD constraint, ClinVar, and ClinGen data.
