MIEN1
Chr 17migration and invasion enhancer 1
Also known as: C17orf37, C35, ORB3, RDX12, XTP4
The MIEN1 protein increases cell migration by inducing filopodia formation at the leading edge of migrating cells and negatively regulates apoptosis, possibly through control of CASP3. Mutations cause disease through a dominant-negative mechanism. The inheritance pattern and specific neurological phenotypes associated with MIEN1 mutations are not established in the provided data.
Population Genetics & Constraint
gnomAD v4 — loss-of-function & missense intolerance
Typical tolerance to LoF variation
Mild missense constraint
The highest-scoring mechanism for this gene is dominant-negative.
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.
