GRHPR
Chr 9ARglyoxylate and hydroxypyruvate reductase
Also known as: GLXR, GLYD, PH2
This gene encodes an enzyme with hydroxypyruvate reductase, glyoxylate reductase, and D-glycerate dehydrogenase activities that reduces hydroxypyruvate to D-glycerate and glyoxylate to glycolate in cellular metabolism. Mutations cause primary hyperoxaluria type II, an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by excessive oxalate production leading to kidney stones and potential kidney damage. The gene shows low constraint against loss-of-function variants (pLI near zero), consistent with its recessive inheritance pattern.
Population Genetics & Constraint
gnomAD v4 — loss-of-function & missense intolerance
Highly tolerant — LoF variants common in population
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.
