HSPH1

Chr 13

heat shock protein family H (Hsp110) member 1

Also known as: HSP105, HSP105A, HSP105B, NY-CO-25

The protein functions as a nucleotide exchange factor for heat shock protein 70 family chaperones and acts as a holdase that prevents aggregation of misfolded proteins under cellular stress conditions. Mutations cause neurodevelopmental disorder with spastic diplegia and visual defects, typically presenting in early childhood with developmental delays, spasticity affecting the legs, and ophthalmologic abnormalities. The gene is highly constrained against loss-of-function variants and inheritance follows an autosomal dominant pattern.

Clinical SummaryHSPH1
Population Constraint (gnomAD)
Highly constrained gene — heterozygous loss-of-function variants are very rare in the population (pLI 1.00). One damaged copy is likely sufficient to cause disease.
