ZNF407
Chr 18ARzinc finger protein 407
Also known as: SIMHA
This gene encodes a zinc finger protein that may be involved in transcriptional regulation. Mutations cause SIMHA syndrome, which is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern. The gene is highly constrained against loss-of-function variants (pLI >0.99, LOEUF 0.092), indicating it is critical for normal cellular function.

Mild missense constraint
Predictions shown for reference only — model trained on dominant genes, not applicable to AR conditions.
The Badonyi & Marsh prediction model was trained exclusively on dominant disease genes. Predictions are not reliable for genes with autosomal recessive inheritance and are shown at reduced opacity for reference only.
Predictions from Badonyi M, Marsh JA. PLoS ONE. 2024;19(8):e0307312. Mechanism ranking also informed by gnomAD constraint, ClinVar, and ClinGen data.
