LRRC14

Chr 8

leucine rich repeat containing 14

Also known as: LRRC14A

NCBI Gene: 9684ENSG00000160959UniProt: Q15048

The protein negatively regulates Toll-like receptor-mediated NF-kappa-B signaling by disrupting IKK core complex formation through interaction with IKBKB. This gene is highly constrained against loss-of-function variants, but specific disease associations and inheritance patterns have not been established in the provided data.

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.

GOFprediction above median
DNprediction above median

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.
