Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the DCLRE1B gene is commonly pathogenic or not. These statistics are base on transcript: NM_000022836.4. 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: 5'-3' exonuclease that plays a central role in telomere maintenance and protection during S-phase. Participates in the protection of telomeres against non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ)- mediated repair, thereby ensuring that telomeres do not fuse. Plays a key role in telomeric loop (T loop) formation by being recruited by TERF2 at the leading end telomeres and by processing leading-end telomeres immediately after their replication via its exonuclease activity: generates 3' single-stranded overhang at the leading end telomeres avoiding blunt leading-end telomeres that are vulnerable to end-joining reactions and expose the telomere end in a manner that activates the DNA repair pathways. Together with TERF2, required to protect telomeres from replicative damage during replication by controlling the amount of DNA topoisomerase (TOP1, TOP2A and TOP2B) needed for telomere replication during fork passage and prevent aberrant telomere topology. Also involved in response to DNA damage: plays a role in response to DNA interstrand cross-links (ICLs) by facilitating double-strand break formation. In case of spindle stress, involved in prophase checkpoint. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15467758, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15572677, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16730175, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16730176, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18468965, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18469862, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19197158, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19411856, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20655466}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Hoyeraal-Hreidarsson syndrome (HHS) [MIM:305000]: A clinically severe variant of dyskeratosis congenita that is characterized by multisystem involvement, early onset in utero, and often results in death in childhood. Affected individuals show intrauterine growth retardation, microcephaly, cerebellar hypoplasia, delayed development, and bone marrow failure resulting in immunodeficiency. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20479256}. Note=The gene represented in this entry may be involved in disease pathogenesis. An aberrant splice variant of DCLRE1B, designated Apollo-Delta, has been found in a patient with Hoyeraal-Hreidarsson syndrome (PubMed:20479256). Apollo-Delta hampers the proper replication of telomeres, leading to major telomeric dysfunction and cellular senescence, but maintains its DNA interstrand cross-link repair function in the whole genome. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20479256}.;
