SIAH3

Chr 13

siah E3 ubiquitin protein ligase family member 3

SIAH3 encodes an E3 ubiquitin ligase that negatively regulates PINK1 protein stability and prevents PRKN translocation to damaged mitochondria. Mutations cause autosomal recessive early-onset Parkinson disease, presenting in childhood or adolescence with progressive movement disorder. The gene shows low constraint to loss-of-function variation (pLI 0.001, LOEUF 1.59), consistent with recessive inheritance requiring biallelic mutations.

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.
