The protein suppresses the initiation of ciliogenesis and is localized to centriolar satellites and ciliary basal bodies. Mutations cause autosomal recessive primary ciliary dyskinesia, characterized by chronic respiratory tract infections, bronchiectasis, and situs inversus. The gene shows tolerance to loss-of-function variants, consistent with the recessive inheritance pattern observed in affected individuals.
Population Genetics & Constraint
gnomAD v4 — loss-of-function & missense intolerance
Highly tolerant — LoF variants common in population
Tolerant to missense variation
This gene has evidence for multiple mechanisms of pathogenicity (dominant-negative and gain-of-function). Both the Badonyi & Marsh prediction and the broader genomic evidence point to dominant-negative 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.
