ENTPD6
Chr 20ectonucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolase 6
Also known as: CD39L2, IL-6SAG, IL6ST2, NTPDase-6, dJ738P15.3
ENTPD6 encodes a nucleotidase that catalyzes the hydrolysis of nucleoside triphosphates and diphosphates, with strong preference for diphosphates like GDP, IDP, and UDP, and functions in glycosylation reactions in the Golgi apparatus. Mutations in ENTPD6 cause autosomal recessive spastic paraplegia with intellectual disability and hearing loss. The gene shows low constraint to loss-of-function variation, consistent with recessive inheritance.
Population Genetics & Constraint
gnomAD v4 — loss-of-function & missense intolerance
Typical tolerance to LoF variation
Mild missense constraint
The highest-scoring mechanism for this gene is dominant-negative.
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.
