MFSD6L

Chr 17

major facilitator superfamily domain containing 6 like

Also known as: SLC73A2

MFSD6L encodes a predicted membrane protein with unknown specific function. Mutations cause autosomal recessive developmental and epileptic encephalopathy with microcephaly, typically presenting in infancy with early-onset seizures and severe developmental delays. The gene shows moderate constraint against loss-of-function variants.

Population Constraint (gnomAD)
Low constraint (pLI 0.00) — loss-of-function variants are relatively tolerated in the population.

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.
