Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the ABCA3 gene is commonly pathogenic or not. These statistics are base on transcript: NM_000001089.3. Only rare variants are included in the table.

In the table, we include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, Mane Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equals 1. Click the count to view the source variants.

Warning: slight differences between displayed counts and the number of variants in ClinVar may occur, primarily due to (1) the application of a different transcript and/or consequence by our variant effect predictor or (2) differences in clinical significance: we classify Benign/Likely benign variants as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic variants as Likely pathogenic.

Function: FUNCTION: Plays an important role in the formation of pulmonary surfactant, probably by transporting lipids such as cholesterol.;
Disease: DISEASE: Pulmonary surfactant metabolism dysfunction 3 (SMDP3) [MIM:610921]: A rare lung disorder due to impaired surfactant homeostasis. It is characterized by alveolar filling with floccular material that stains positive using the periodic acid- Schiff method and is derived from surfactant phospholipids and protein components. Excessive lipoproteins accumulation in the alveoli results in severe respiratory distress. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15044640}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
