TBC1D25
Chr XTBC1 domain family member 25
Also known as: MG81, OATL1
The protein functions as a GTPase-activating protein specific for RAB33B and regulates autophagosome maturation by controlling the fusion of autophagosomes with endosomes and lysosomes. Mutations cause autosomal recessive developmental and epileptic encephalopathy with onset in infancy, characterized by severe intellectual disability, refractory seizures, and progressive microcephaly. The gene shows moderate constraint against loss-of-function variants, suggesting intolerance to complete protein loss.
Population Genetics & Constraint
gnomAD v4 — loss-of-function & missense intolerance
More LoF-intolerant than ~75% of genes
Highly missense-constrained (top ~0.1%)
This gene has evidence for multiple mechanisms of pathogenicity (gain-of-function and dominant-negative). Both the Badonyi & Marsh prediction and the broader genomic evidence point to gain-of-function 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.
