GPSM2

Chr 1AR

G protein signaling modulator 2

Also known as: CMCS, DFNB82, LGN, PINS

The encoded protein regulates G protein signaling and organizes mitotic spindle poles, playing essential roles in cell division and asymmetric neuroblast divisions. Mutations cause Chudley-McCullough syndrome, an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by sensorineural hearing loss and brain malformations. This gene shows very low constraint against loss-of-function variants (pLI near zero), consistent with its recessive inheritance pattern where heterozygous carriers are typically unaffected.
