MMD2

Chr 7

monocyte to macrophage differentiation associated 2

Also known as: PAQR10

This gene encodes a member of the PAQR (progestin and adipoQ receptor) family. Members of this family are evolutionarily conserved with significant sequence identity to bacterial hemolysin-like proteins and are defined by a set of seven transmembrane domains. The protein encoded by this gene localizes to the Golgi apparatus to modulate Ras signaling. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants and protein isoforms.

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.
