RASSF6

Chr 4

Ras association domain family member 6

The protein is involved in apoptosis induction and functions as a Ras effector protein that may suppress NF-kappa-B signaling. Mutations cause neurodevelopmental disorder with epilepsy, spasticity, and brain abnormalities, following autosomal recessive inheritance. This gene is not highly constrained against loss-of-function variants, indicating tolerance to complete protein loss.

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.
