HSD17B4 (Peroxisomal multifunctional enzyme type 2) variants and mutations

HSD17B4 (also known as Peroxisomal multifunctional enzyme type 2) is a human protein-coding gene encoding a peroxisomal multifunctional enzyme type 2 protein. A peroxisomal multifunctional enzyme that carries out two steps in fatty-acid beta-oxidation. It processes straight-chain and branched fatty acids as well as bile-acid intermediates, and loss of the protein causes D-bifunctional protein deficiency. This analysis covers 1,234 HSD17B4 variants and mutations. Of these, 97% have computational variant effect predictions. Disease context includes d-bifunctional protein deficiency, Perrault syndrome 1, and Perrault syndrome. Example HSD17B4 variants include M1I, M1L, and G2A.
