Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the CRYBA2 gene is commonly pathogenic or not. These statistics are base on transcript: NM_000057093.2. 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: Crystallins are the dominant structural components of the vertebrate eye lens.;
Disease: DISEASE: Cataract 42 (CTRCT42) [MIM:115900]: An opacification of the crystalline lens of the eye that frequently results in visual impairment or blindness. Opacities vary in morphology, are often confined to a portion of the lens, and may be static or progressive. In general, the more posteriorly located and dense an opacity, the greater the impact on visual function. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23508780}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
