SAMD10

Chr 20

sterile alpha motif domain containing 10

Also known as: C20orf136, dJ591C20, dJ591C20.7

The SAMD10 protein is predicted to function in cell surface receptor protein tyrosine kinase signaling pathways at the cytoplasmic side of the plasma membrane. This gene is not well-established as a cause of human disease, with very limited clinical data available. The gene shows tolerance to loss-of-function variants in the general population.

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.
