Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the BCS1L gene is commonly pathogenic or not.

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: Chaperone necessary for the assembly of mitochondrial respiratory chain complex III. Plays an important role in the maintenance of mitochondrial tubular networks, respiratory chain assembly and formation of the LETM1 complex. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18628306}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Mitochondrial complex III deficiency, nuclear 1 (MC3DN1) [MIM:124000]: A disorder of the mitochondrial respiratory chain resulting in a highly variable phenotype depending on which tissues are affected. Clinical features include mitochondrial encephalopathy, psychomotor retardation, ataxia, severe failure to thrive, liver dysfunction, renal tubulopathy, muscle weakness and exercise intolerance. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11528392, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12910490, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17314340, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17403714, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18628306, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19162478, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22991165}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Bjoernstad syndrome (BJS) [MIM:262000]: An autosomal recessive disease characterized by congenital sensorineural hearing loss and twisted hairs (pili torti). Pili torti is a condition in which the hair shafts are flattened at irregular intervals and twisted 180 degrees from the normal axis, making the hair extremely brittle. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17314340, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24172246}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
