Disorders

Relationship is the entry's genetic[].relationship_type. untyped means the entry has a genetic record for the gene but does not type it; its free-text association is shown instead.

DisorderRelationshipWhere the gene appears
Peroxisome Biogenesis Disorder untyped
Pathogenic Variants
Zellweger Spectrum Disorders untyped
Autosomal recessive causal pathogenic variant. PEX3 is one of the three mammalian peroxins required for peroxisomal membrane protein insertion, so its loss removes the peroxisomal membrane rather than only its matrix cargo.
mechanism: Peroxisomal Membrane Assembly Failure
subtype: PEX3-ZSD
scoped to subtype: PEX3-ZSD
ClinGen gene–disease validity · snapshot 2026-10-03 · matched to entries by MONDO

An entry matches when ClinGen's MONDO disease is the entry's own disease term, a subtype term, or an exact-match mapping. An amber status marks an entry ClinGen supports the gene for (Definitive, Strong or Moderate) whose own record does not type it. A Limited, Disputed or Refuted tier on such an entry is not a gap.
