Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the HOMER2 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: Postsynaptic density scaffolding protein. Binds and cross-links cytoplasmic regions of GRM1, GRM5, ITPR1, DNM3, RYR1, RYR2, SHANK1 and SHANK3. By physically linking GRM1 and GRM5 with ER-associated ITPR1 receptors, it aids the coupling of surface receptors to intracellular calcium release. May also couple GRM1 to PI3 kinase through its interaction with AGAP2. Isoforms can be differently regulated and may play an important role in maintaining the plasticity at glutamatergic synapses (PubMed:9808459). Required for normal hearing (PubMed:25816005). Negatively regulates T cell activation through negative regulation of IL2 expression by inhibiting calcineurin-NFAT pathway activation through interaction with NFATC2 (PubMed:18218901). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18218901, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25816005, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9808459}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Deafness, autosomal dominant, 68 (DFNA68) [MIM:616707]: A form of non-syndromic sensorineural hearing loss with postlingual onset. Sensorineural deafness results from damage to the neural receptors of the inner ear, the nerve pathways to the brain, or the area of the brain that receives sound information. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25816005}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
