LRRC8C
Chr 1ADleucine rich repeat containing 8 VRAC subunit C
Also known as: AD158, FAD158, TIMES
Enables volume-sensitive anion channel activity. Involved in cyclic-GMP-AMP transmembrane import across plasma membrane and monoatomic anion transmembrane transport. Located in cytoplasm and plasma membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

gnomAD v4 — loss-of-function & missense intolerance
Typical tolerance to LoF variation
Moderately missense-constrained (top ~2.5%)
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.
