DYNLT2
Chr 6dynein light chain Tctex-type 2
This protein is a component of dynein motor complexes that drive movement along microtubules and is required for structural and functional integrity of cilia. Mutations in DYNLT2 cause autosomal recessive primary ciliary dyskinesia with situs inversus, a disorder affecting respiratory cilia function and organ positioning. The gene shows low constraint against loss-of-function mutations, consistent with its recessive inheritance pattern.

Population Genetics & Constraint
gnomAD v4 — loss-of-function & missense intolerance
Highly tolerant — LoF variants common in population
Tolerant to missense variation
The highest-scoring mechanism for this gene is gain-of-function.
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.
