TRIM32
Chr 9ARtripartite motif containing 32
Also known as: BBS11, HT2A, LGMD2H, LGMDR8, TATIP
TRIM32 encodes a tripartite motif protein that localizes to cytoplasmic bodies and the nucleus, where it interacts with transcriptional machinery. Mutations cause autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 8 and Bardet-Biedl syndrome 11 through a predicted gain-of-function mechanism. The low pLI score (0.0017) indicates tolerance to loss-of-function variants, consistent with the gain-of-function pathogenic mechanism.

Typical tolerance to LoF variation
Mild missense constraint
Predictions shown for reference only — model trained on dominant genes, not applicable to AR conditions.
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.
