TXNDC17

Chr 17

thioredoxin domain containing 17

Also known as: TRP14, TXNL5

The protein functions as a disulfide reductase with peroxidase activity, catalyzing redox reactions and modulating TNF signaling pathways while helping eliminate cellular hydrogen peroxide. Mutations cause autosomal recessive intellectual disability with seizures and spasticity, typically presenting in early childhood. This condition primarily affects the central nervous system with developmental and neurological manifestations.

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.
