DMRTB1

Chr 1

DMRT like family B with proline rich C-terminal 1

This gene encodes a DNA-binding transcription factor that regulates RNA polymerase II transcription and sex differentiation in the nucleus. Mutations cause neurodevelopmental disorders with intellectual disability and developmental delay. The gene shows autosomal dominant inheritance and is highly constrained against loss-of-function variants (pLI 0.83, LOEUF 0.47).
