CWC25

Chr 17

CWC25 spliceosome associated protein

Also known as: CCDC49

The protein functions as a component of the spliceosome and is involved in pre-mRNA splicing. Mutations cause disease through a dominant-negative mechanism, though specific clinical phenotypes and inheritance patterns are not established in the provided data. The gene shows tolerance to loss-of-function variants based on constraint metrics.

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.
