SLC2A14
Chr 12solute carrier family 2 member 14
Also known as: GLUT14, SLC2A3P3
This protein is a hexose transporter that mediates glucose and dehydroascorbate transport across cell membranes. Mutations cause autosomal recessive developmental and epileptic encephalopathy with movement abnormalities, typically presenting in early infancy. The gene shows moderate constraint against loss-of-function variants, suggesting some intolerance to complete protein loss.
Population Genetics & Constraint
gnomAD v4 — loss-of-function & missense intolerance
Typical tolerance to LoF variation
Mild missense constraint
This gene has evidence for multiple mechanisms of pathogenicity (dominant-negative and gain-of-function). Both the Badonyi & Marsh prediction and the broader genomic evidence point to dominant-negative as the predominant mechanism. Different variants in this gene may act through different mechanisms — interpret in context of the specific variant.
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.
