CENPI

Chr X

centromere protein I

Also known as: CENP-I, FSHPRH1, LRPR1

CENPI encodes a centromere protein that is essential for kinetochore assembly, chromosome segregation, and mitotic spindle checkpoint signaling. Mutations cause X-linked disorders of gonadal development and gametogenesis. This gene is highly constrained against loss-of-function variants, indicating that heterozygous loss is likely pathogenic.

Clinical SummaryCENPI
Population Constraint (gnomAD)
Highly constrained gene — heterozygous loss-of-function variants are very rare in the population (pLI 1.00). One damaged copy is likely sufficient to cause disease.
