STAC3

Chr 12AR

SH3 and cysteine rich domain 3

Also known as: CMYO13, CMYP13, MYPBB, NAM

STAC3 encodes a protein required for normal excitation-contraction coupling in skeletal muscle by regulating calcium channel activity and calcium release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Mutations cause congenital myopathy 13 (also known as Native American myopathy), inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern. The gene is highly constrained against loss-of-function variants, and a GeneReviews entry provides additional clinical guidance.

Population Constraint (gnomAD)
Low constraint (pLI 0.00) — loss-of-function variants are relatively tolerated in the population.

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.
