EDC3

protein-coding

enhancer of mRNA decapping 3

Gene summary

This gene encodes a protein that is important in mRNA degradation. The encoded protein is a component of a decapping complex that promotes efficient removal of the monomethylguanosine (m7G) cap from mRNAs, as part of the 5' to 3' mRNA decay pathway. Mutations in this gene have been identified in human patients with an autosomal recessive form of intellectual disability. [provided by RefSeq, May 2017]

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_025083.5. 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: Binds single-stranded RNA. Involved in the process of mRNA degradation and in the positive regulation of mRNA decapping. May play a role in spermiogenesis and oogenesis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16364915, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17533573, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18678652, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25701870}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Mental retardation, autosomal recessive 50 (MRT50) [MIM:616460]: A form of mental retardation, a disorder characterized by significantly below average general intellectual functioning associated with impairments in adaptive behavior and manifested during the developmental period. MRT50 patients show mild intellectual disability and microcephaly. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25701870}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
