ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type
Statistics based on transcript NM_033426.3. Only rare variants are included.
We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.
Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

- Function
- FUNCTION: Transcriptional repressor which may act as a negative- feedback regulator of CLOCK-ARNTL/BMAL1 transcriptional activity in the circadian-clock mechanism. May stimulate ARNTL/BMAL1- dependent phosphorylation of CLOCK. However, the physiogical relevance of these observations is unsure, since experiments in an animal model showed that CIPC is not critially required for basic circadian clock. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8R0W1}.;
