KLHL23
Chr 2kelch like family member 23
Also known as: DITHP
Predicted to enable ubiquitin-like ligase-substrate adaptor activity. Predicted to be involved in proteasome-mediated ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be part of Cul3-RING ubiquitin ligase complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]
Population Genetics & Constraint
gnomAD v4 — loss-of-function & missense intolerance
Typical tolerance to LoF variation
Mild missense constraint
This gene — mechanism propensity
This gene has evidence for multiple mechanisms of pathogenicity (gain-of-function and dominant-negative). Both the Badonyi & Marsh prediction and the broader genomic evidence point to gain-of-function 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.
Predictions from Badonyi M, Marsh JA. PLoS ONE. 2024;19(8):e0307312.
