SELENOO

Chr 22

selenoprotein O

Also known as: SELO

This gene encodes a large mitochondrial selenoprotein that catalyzes AMPylation of serine, threonine, and tyrosine residues in target proteins and may have redox activity. The gene is highly tolerant to loss-of-function variants (LOEUF 1.69), and no definitive human disease associations have been established for SELENOO mutations. Clinical significance of variants in this gene remains uncertain.
