Variants pathogenicity by type
Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the DCX 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: Microtubule-associated protein required for initial steps of neuronal dispersion and cortex lamination during cerebral cortex development. May act by competing with the putative neuronal protein kinase DCLK1 in binding to a target protein. May in that way participate in a signaling pathway that is crucial for neuronal interaction before and during migration, possibly as part of a calcium ion-dependent signal transduction pathway. May be part with PAFAH1B1/LIS-1 of overlapping, but distinct, signaling pathways that promote neuronal migration. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22359282}.;
- Disease
- DISEASE: Lissencephaly, X-linked 1 (LISX1) [MIM:300067]: A classic lissencephaly characterized by mental retardation and seizures that are more severe in male patients. Affected boys show an abnormally thick cortex with absent or severely reduced gyri. Clinical manifestations include feeding problems, abnormal muscular tone, seizures and severe to profound psychomotor retardation. Female patients display a less severe phenotype referred to as 'doublecortex'. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11468322, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12552055, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27292316, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9489699, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9489700, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9668176, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9817918}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Subcortical band heterotopia X-linked (SBHX) [MIM:300067]: SBHX is a mild brain malformation of the lissencephaly spectrum. It is characterized by bilateral and symmetric plates or bands of gray matter found in the central white matter between the cortex and cerebral ventricles, cerebral convolutions usually appearing normal. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10369164, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10441340, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10807542, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11175293, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11601509, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12390976, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9618162, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9989615}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Note=A chromosomal aberration involving DCX is found in lissencephaly.
