HNRNPF
Chr 10heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein F
Also known as: HNRPF, OK/SW-cl.23, mcs94-1
The protein is a heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein that binds G-rich sequences in pre-mRNAs and regulates alternative splicing events, keeping target RNA in an unfolded state for proper processing. Mutations cause neurodevelopmental disorders with intellectual disability, developmental delay, and seizures, following an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern. This gene is highly constrained against loss-of-function mutations in the general population.
Population Genetics & Constraint
gnomAD v4 — loss-of-function & missense intolerance
Highly LoF-intolerant (top ~10% of genes)
Moderately missense-constrained (top ~2.5%)
The highest-scoring mechanism for this gene is loss-of-function (haploinsufficiency).
Predictions from Badonyi M, Marsh JA. PLoS ONE. 2024;19(8):e0307312. Mechanism ranking also informed by gnomAD constraint, ClinVar, and ClinGen data.
