SMOC2

Chr 6AR

SPARC related modular calcium binding 2

Also known as: DTDP1, DTDP1A, MST117, MSTP117, MSTP140, SMAP2, bA270C4A.1, bA37D8.1

The protein is a matricellular protein that promotes matrix assembly and cell adhesiveness, and stimulates endothelial cell proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis. Biallelic mutations cause dentin dysplasia type IA, an autosomal recessive condition affecting tooth development. The gene shows moderate constraint against loss-of-function variants (LOEUF 0.622), suggesting some tolerance to such mutations.

The Badonyi & Marsh prediction model was trained exclusively on dominant disease genes. Predictions are not reliable for genes with autosomal recessive inheritance and are shown at reduced opacity for reference only.
