PLEKHN1

Chr 1

pleckstrin homology domain containing N1

Also known as: CLPABP

Enables phospholipid binding activity. Involved in 3'-UTR-mediated mRNA destabilization; positive regulation of apoptotic process; and response to hypoxia. Located in several cellular components, including cytoskeleton; cytosol; and mitochondrial membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

The highest-scoring mechanism for this gene is gain-of-function.

GOFprediction above median

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.
