Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the FZD6 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: Receptor for Wnt proteins. Most of frizzled receptors are coupled to the beta-catenin canonical signaling pathway, which leads to the activation of disheveled proteins, inhibition of GSK- 3 kinase, nuclear accumulation of beta-catenin and activation of Wnt target genes. A second signaling pathway involving PKC and calcium fluxes has been seen for some family members, but it is not yet clear if it represents a distinct pathway or if it can be integrated in the canonical pathway, as PKC seems to be required for Wnt-mediated inactivation of GSK-3 kinase. Both pathways seem to involve interactions with G-proteins. May be involved in transduction and intercellular transmission of polarity information during tissue morphogenesis and/or in differentiated tissues. Together with FZD3, is involved in the neural tube closure and plays a role in the regulation of the establishment of planar cell polarity (PCP), particularly in the orientation of asymmetric bundles of stereocilia on the apical faces of a subset of auditory and vestibular sensory cells located in the inner ear (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q61089}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Nail disorder, non-syndromic congenital, 10 (NDNC10) [MIM:614157]: A nail disorder characterized by a variable degree of onychauxis (thick nails), hyponychia, and onycholysis of all nails, with claw-shaped fingernails in some individuals. No other anomalies of ectodermal tissues, including hair, teeth, sweat glands, or skin, are noted, and individuals with dysplastic nails have normal hearing and normal psychomotor development. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21665003}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Note=Rare non-synonymous variants in FZD6 may contribute to neural tube defects, congenital malformations of the central nervous system and adjacent structures related to defective neural tube closure during the first trimester of pregnancy.;
