ectodysplasin A, the group of MicroRNA protein coding host genes|Tumor necrosis factor superfamily

Gene summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a type II membrane protein that can be cleaved by furin to produce a secreted form. The encoded protein, which belongs to the tumor necrosis factor family, acts as a homotrimer and may be involved in cell-cell signaling during the development of ectodermal organs. Defects in this gene are a cause of ectodermal dysplasia, anhidrotic, which is also known as X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia. Several transcript variants encoding many different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Intervention: General

Rationale: Genetic knowledge may be beneficial related to issues such as selection of optimal supportive care, informed medical decision-making, prognostic considerations, and avoidance of unnecessary testing

Comments: Frequent respiratory infections have been reported, possibly related to paucity/absence of mucus glands

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_001399.5. 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: Cytokine which is involved in epithelial-mesenchymal signaling during morphogenesis of ectodermal organs. Functions as a ligand activating the DEATH-domain containing receptors EDAR and EDA2R (PubMed:8696334, PubMed:11039935, PubMed:27144394). May also play a role in cell adhesion (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O54693, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11039935, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27144394, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8696334}.; FUNCTION: Isoform 3: Binds only to the receptor EDA2R. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11039935, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27144394}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Ectodermal dysplasia 1, hypohidrotic, X-linked (XHED) [MIM:305100]: A form of ectodermal dysplasia, a heterogeneous group of disorders due to abnormal development of two or more ectodermal structures. Characterized by sparse hair (atrichosis or hypotrichosis), abnormal or missing teeth and the inability to sweat due to the absence of sweat glands. It is the most common form of over 150 clinically distinct ectodermal dysplasias. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10469321, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10951256, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11279189, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11295832, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11309369, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11343303, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11378824, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11416205, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12225002, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12932274, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17256800, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18231121, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19127222, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19438931, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20486090, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20979233, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22008666, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22350046, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24724966, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27144394, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27657131, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8696334, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9507389, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9630076, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9683615, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9736768}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Tooth agenesis, selective, X-linked, 1 (STHAGX1) [MIM:313500]: A form of selective tooth agenesis, a common anomaly characterized by the congenital absence of one or more teeth. Selective tooth agenesis without associated systemic disorders has sometimes been divided into 2 types: oligodontia, defined as agenesis of 6 or more permanent teeth, and hypodontia, defined as agenesis of less than 6 teeth. The number in both cases does not include absence of third molars (wisdom teeth). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16583127, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18657636, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19278982, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23603338, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23625373, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24487376, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27144394}.
