ZBTB6
Chr 9zinc finger and BTB domain containing 6
Also known as: ZID, ZNF482
The protein functions as a DNA-binding transcriptional repressor that regulates RNA polymerase II transcription and is predicted to be involved in cytokine production and immune system regulation. Mutations in this gene have been associated with neurodevelopmental disorders, though the clinical phenotype and inheritance pattern are not well-established from current data. The gene shows moderate constraint against loss-of-function variants (LOEUF 0.641), suggesting some intolerance to complete protein loss.
Population Genetics & Constraint
gnomAD v4 — loss-of-function & missense intolerance
Typical tolerance to LoF variation
Mild missense constraint
The highest-scoring mechanism for this gene is dominant-negative.
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.
