WDR12
Chr 2WD repeat domain 12
Also known as: YTM1
WDR12 encodes a component of the PeBoW complex that is required for maturation of 28S and 5.8S ribosomal RNAs and formation of the 60S ribosome. Mutations cause Klippel-Feil syndrome 4 with neuropathy and developmental delay, which follows an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern. This gene is highly constrained against loss-of-function variants, indicating its critical role in cellular function.
