FBXL6
Chr 8F-box and leucine rich repeat protein 6
Also known as: FBL6, FBL6A, PP14630
The protein serves as a substrate-recognition component of the SCF E3 ubiquitin ligase complex, which targets specific proteins for degradation through the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. Mutations cause autosomal recessive developmental delay with intellectual disability, seizures, and movement disorders. The gene shows moderate constraint against loss-of-function variants, suggesting some tolerance to haploinsufficiency.
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 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.
