Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the ESR1 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: Nuclear hormone receptor. The steroid hormones and their receptors are involved in the regulation of eukaryotic gene expression and affect cellular proliferation and differentiation in target tissues. Ligand-dependent nuclear transactivation involves either direct homodimer binding to a palindromic estrogen response element (ERE) sequence or association with other DNA- binding transcription factors, such as AP-1/c-Jun, c-Fos, ATF-2, Sp1 and Sp3, to mediate ERE-independent signaling. Ligand binding induces a conformational change allowing subsequent or combinatorial association with multiprotein coactivator complexes through LXXLL motifs of their respective components. Mutual transrepression occurs between the estrogen receptor (ER) and NF- kappa-B in a cell-type specific manner. Decreases NF-kappa-B DNA- binding activity and inhibits NF-kappa-B-mediated transcription from the IL6 promoter and displace RELA/p65 and associated coregulators from the promoter. Recruited to the NF-kappa-B response element of the CCL2 and IL8 promoters and can displace CREBBP. Present with NF-kappa-B components RELA/p65 and NFKB1/p50 on ERE sequences. Can also act synergistically with NF-kappa-B to activate transcription involving respective recruitment adjacent response elements; the function involves CREBBP. Can activate the transcriptional activity of TFF1. Also mediates membrane-initiated estrogen signaling involving various kinase cascades. Isoform 3 is involved in activation of NOS3 and endothelial nitric oxide production. Isoforms lacking one or several functional domains are thought to modulate transcriptional activity by competitive ligand or DNA binding and/or heterodimerization with the full-length receptor. Essential for MTA1-mediated transcriptional regulation of BRCA1 and BCAS3. Isoform 3 can bind to ERE and inhibit isoform 1. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10681512, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10816575, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11477071, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11682626, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14764652, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15078875, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15891768, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16043358, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16617102, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16684779, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17922032, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17932106, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18247370, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19350539, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20074560, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20705611, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21330404, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22083956, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7651415, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9328340}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Estrogen resistance (ESTRR) [MIM:615363]: A disorder characterized by partial or complete resistance to estrogens, in the presence of elevated estrogen serum levels. Clinical features include absence of the pubertal growth spurt, delayed bone maturation, unfused epiphyses, reduced bone mineral density, osteoporosis, continued growth into adulthood and very tall adult stature. Glucose intolerance, hyperinsulinemia and lipid abnormalities may also be present. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23841731, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27754803}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
