MAN1B1

Chr 9AR

mannosidase alpha class 1B member 1

Also known as: ERMAN1, ERManI, MANA-ER, MRT15

This gene encodes an alpha-1,2-mannosidase that trims mannose residues from N-linked glycans in the endoplasmic reticulum, functioning in glycoprotein quality control and targeting misfolded proteins for degradation. Biallelic mutations cause Rafiq syndrome, an autosomal recessive intellectual disability disorder. The gene shows moderate constraint against loss-of-function variants (LOEUF 0.83), suggesting some tolerance to heterozygous disruption.

The Badonyi & Marsh prediction model was trained exclusively on dominant disease genes. Predictions are not reliable for genes with autosomal recessive inheritance and are shown at reduced opacity for reference only.
