Functional genomics
gnomAD constraint: pLI 1, LOEUF 0.287, missense Z 2.48 — population loss-of-function intolerance (pLI ≥ 0.9 = LoF-intolerant; lower LOEUF = more constrained). gnomAD
Regional missense constraint (gnomAD)
ENST00000647382 splits into 11 regions with different missense tolerance; 3 are missense-constrained (≈2% of the expected missense variation). Missense variants in a constrained region (low observed/expected) are more likely to be pathogenic. gnomAD
