Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the CD40LG gene is commonly pathogenic or not. These statistics are base on transcript: NM_000000074.3. 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: Cytokine that binds to CD40/TNFRSF5 (PubMed:1280226). Costimulates T-cell proliferation and cytokine production. Its cross-linking on T-cells generates a costimulatory signal which enhances the production of IL4 and IL10 in conjunction with the TCR/CD3 ligation and CD28 costimulation (PubMed:8617933). Induces the activation of NF-kappa-B and kinases MAPK8 and PAK2 in T- cells. Induces tyrosine phosphorylation of isoform 3 of CD28 (PubMed:15067037). Mediates B-cell proliferation in the absence of co-stimulus as well as IgE production in the presence of IL4. Involved in immunoglobulin class switching (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P27548, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1280226, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15067037, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8617933}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Immunodeficiency with hyper-IgM, type 1 (HIGM1) [MIM:308230]: Immunoglobulin isotype switch defect characterized by elevated concentrations of serum IgM and decreased amounts of all other isotypes. Affected males present at an early age (usually within the first year of life) recurrent bacterial and opportunistic infections, including Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia and intractable diarrhea due to cryptosporidium infection. Despite substitution treatment with intravenous immunoglobulin, the overall prognosis is rather poor, with a death rate of about 10% before adolescence. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26545377, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7532185, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7678782, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7679206, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7679801, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7717401, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8094231, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8550833, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8889581, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9150729, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9746782}.
