ZNF205

Chr 16

zinc finger protein 205

Also known as: RhitH, ZNF210, Zfp13

NCBI Gene: 7755ENSG00000122386UniProt: O95201

Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; positive regulation of hydrogen peroxide biosynthetic process; and positive regulation of mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization involved in apoptotic signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in mitochondrion and nucleus. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Population Genetics & Constraint

gnomAD v4 — loss-of-function & missense intolerance

gnomAD
Moderate LoF intolerance
LoF Constraint?LOEUF (Loss-of-function Observed/Expected Upper bound Fraction) is the upper bound of the 90% CI for LoF OE — the preferred gnomAD v4 metric. Lower = more intolerant to LoF. LOEUF < 0.35 = highly constrained.
0.56LOEUF
pLI 0.032
Z-score 3.13
OE 0.30 (0.17–0.56)
Moderately constrained

More LoF-intolerant than ~75% of genes

Missense Constraint?Missense Z-score: standard deviations fewer missense variants observed vs. expected. Z > 3.09 (p < 0.001) = gene does not tolerate missense variation. OE missense < 0.6 is also considered constrained.

Observed / Expected Ratios?Shaded band = 90% confidence interval. Vertical tick = point estimate. Grey threshold line = gnomAD constraint cutoff for that variant class.
LoF OE?Ratio of observed to expected LoF variants. Upper CI bound (LOEUF) ≤ 0.35 = strong LoF constraint signal.0.30 (0.17–0.56)

Missense OE?Ratio of observed to expected missense variants. OE ≤ 0.6 = fewer missense variants than expected by chance.0.93 (0.85–1.01)

Synonymous OE?Control metric — synonymous variants are largely neutral and expected near OE = 1.0. Significant deviation may indicate annotation issues.1.09
