RNF224
Chr 9ring finger protein 224
RNF224 encodes a protein predicted to bind zinc ions. Mutations in this gene have been associated with neurodevelopmental disorders, though the clinical spectrum is still being defined. The gene shows tolerance to loss-of-function variation (pLI 0.04, LOEUF 1.76), and inheritance patterns for associated conditions remain unclear.
Population Genetics & Constraint
gnomAD v4 — loss-of-function & missense intolerance
Highly tolerant — LoF variants common in population
Tolerant to missense variation
The highest-scoring mechanism for this gene is gain-of-function.
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.
