TTC22

Chr 1

tetratricopeptide repeat domain 22

The protein contains seven tetratricopeptide repeats that mediate protein-protein interactions and chaperone activity. Mutations cause autosomal recessive intellectual disability with microcephaly, seizures, and developmental delay, typically presenting in early childhood. The gene is highly constrained against loss-of-function variants, indicating that complete loss of protein function is likely not tolerated.

The highest-scoring mechanism for this gene is gain-of-function.

GOFprediction above median

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.
