FIBIN
Chr 11fin bud initiation factor homolog
FIBIN encodes a protein predicted to enable protein homodimerization and is located in the Golgi apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum, and extracellular region. However, no human diseases have been definitively associated with FIBIN mutations in the current literature. The clinical significance of variants in this gene remains to be established.
Population Genetics & Constraint
gnomAD v4 — loss-of-function & missense intolerance
Typical tolerance to LoF variation
Mild missense constraint
This gene has evidence for multiple mechanisms of pathogenicity (dominant-negative and gain-of-function). Both the Badonyi & Marsh prediction and the broader genomic evidence point to dominant-negative as the predominant mechanism. Different variants in this gene may act through different mechanisms — interpret in context of the specific variant.
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.
