diphthamide biosynthesis 7

Also known as: C9orf112, RRT2, WDR85

NCBI Gene: 92715ENSG00000148399UniProt: Q9BTV6

Diphthamide is a post-translationally modified histidine residue present in elongation factor 2, and is the target of diphtheria toxin. This gene encodes a protein that contains a WD-40 domain, and is thought to be involved in diphthamide biosynthesis. A similar protein in yeast functions as a methylesterase, converting methylated diphthine to diphthine, which can then undergo amidation to produce diphthamide. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2016]

Tolerant — LoF & missense variants common in population
LoF Constraint?LOEUF (Loss-of-function Observed/Expected Upper bound Fraction) is the upper bound of the 90% CI for LoF OE — the preferred gnomAD v4 metric. Lower = more intolerant to LoF. LOEUF < 0.35 = highly constrained.

Highly tolerant — LoF variants common in population

Missense Constraint?Missense Z-score: standard deviations fewer missense variants observed vs. expected. Z > 3.09 (p < 0.001) = gene does not tolerate missense variation. OE missense < 0.6 is also considered constrained.
