Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the CD79B 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: Required in cooperation with CD79A for initiation of the signal transduction cascade activated by the B-cell antigen receptor complex (BCR) which leads to internalization of the complex, trafficking to late endosomes and antigen presentation. Enhances phosphorylation of CD79A, possibly by recruiting kinases which phosphorylate CD79A or by recruiting proteins which bind to CD79A and protect it from dephosphorylation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12097390, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8617796, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9057631}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Agammaglobulinemia 6, autosomal recessive (AGM6) [MIM:612692]: A primary immunodeficiency characterized by profoundly low or absent serum antibodies and low or absent circulating B-cells due to an early block of B-cell development. Affected individuals develop severe infections in the first years of life. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17675462}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
