Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the COL6A1 gene is commonly pathogenic or not. These statistics are base on transcript: NM_000001848.3. 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: Collagen VI acts as a cell-binding protein.;
Disease
DISEASE: Bethlem myopathy 1 (BTHLM1) [MIM:158810]: A benign proximal myopathy characterized by early childhood onset and joint contractures most frequently affecting the elbows and ankles. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11865138, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15689448, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15955946, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8782832}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Ullrich congenital muscular dystrophy 1 (UCMD1) [MIM:254090]: A congenital myopathy characterized by muscle weakness and multiple joint contractures, generally noted at birth or early infancy. The clinical course is more severe than in Bethlem myopathy. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15689448, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16130093, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17785674}.
