CRELD1

Chr 3ADAR

CRELD disulfide isomerase 1

Also known as: AVSD2, CIRRIN, JELANS

The CRELD1 protein functions as a protein disulfide isomerase and promotes acetylcholine receptor localization to the plasma membrane. Mutations cause atrioventricular septal defects (including partial defects with heterotaxy syndrome) and Jeffries-Lakhani neurodevelopmental syndrome, following both autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive inheritance patterns. This gene is not highly constrained against loss-of-function variants, indicating that complete protein loss may be tolerated in some contexts.

This gene has evidence for multiple mechanisms of pathogenicity (gain-of-function and dominant-negative). Both the Badonyi & Marsh prediction and the broader genomic evidence point to gain-of-function as the predominant mechanism. Different variants in this gene may act through different mechanisms — interpret in context of the specific variant.

Note: In-silico variant effect predictors (SIFT, PolyPhen, REVEL, CADD) may underestimate pathogenicity of missense variants in genes with GOF or DN mechanisms. Consider functional evidence and clinical context.
