C9ORF85

Chr 9

chromosome 9 open reading frame 85

The C9ORF85 protein function remains poorly characterized. Mutations cause autosomal recessive intellectual disability with microcephaly, seizures, and developmental delay. The gene shows low constraint against loss-of-function variants, consistent with the recessive inheritance pattern observed in affected individuals.
