RRP1B

Chr 21

ribosomal RNA processing 1B

Also known as: KIAA0179, NNP1L, Nnp1, PPP1R136, RRP1

RRP1B encodes a transcriptional coactivator that regulates DNA damage-induced apoptosis, ribosome biogenesis, and mRNA splicing. Mutations cause autosomal recessive neurodevelopmental disorder with seizures and brain abnormalities, typically presenting in early childhood. The gene is not highly constrained to loss-of-function variants.

The highest-scoring mechanism for this gene is dominant-negative.

DNprediction 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.
