ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_133636.5. 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: Single-stranded DNA-dependent ATPase and 5' to 3' DNA helicase (PubMed:11751861). Involved in the repair of DNA cross- links and double-strand break (DSB) resistance. Participates in FANCD2-mediated repair. Forms a complex with POLN polymerase that participates in homologous recombination (HR) repair and is essential for cellular protection against DNA cross-links (PubMed:19995904). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11751861, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19995904}.;
