HSPA9

protein-coding

heat shock protein family A (Hsp70) member 9, the group of Heat shock 70kDa proteins|Small nucleolar RNA protein coding host genes

Gene summary

This gene encodes a member of the heat shock protein 70 gene family. The encoded protein is primarily localized to the mitochondria but is also found in the endoplasmic reticulum, plasma membrane and cytoplasmic vesicles. This protein is a heat-shock cognate protein. This protein plays a role in cell proliferation, stress response and maintenance of the mitochondria. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 2.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

Manifestation: Cardiovascular; Craniofacial; Dermatologic; Gastrointestinal; Hematologic; Musculoskeletal

Intervention: Cardiovascular; Hematologic; Renal

Rationale: Individuals with anemia have been described with anemia requiring RBC transfusions in some individuals, and awareness may allow for surveillance and prompt management; EVEN-plus syndrome may involve congenital anomalies (eg, cardiac anomalies) that require early identification and interventions for management

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_004134.7. 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: Chaperone protein which plays an important role in mitochondrial iron-sulfur cluster (ISC) biogenesis. Interacts with and stabilizes ISC cluster assembly proteins FXN, NFU1, NFS1 and ISCU (PubMed:26702583). Regulates erythropoiesis via stabilization of ISC assembly (PubMed:21123823, PubMed:26702583). May play a role in the control of cell proliferation and cellular aging (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P38647, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21123823, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26702583}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Anemia, sideroblastic, 4 (SIDBA4) [MIM:182170]: A form of sideroblastic anemia, a bone marrow disorder defined by the presence of pathologic iron deposits in erythroblast mitochondria. Sideroblastic anemia is characterized by anemia of varying severity, hypochromic peripheral erythrocytes, systemic iron overload secondary to chronic ineffective erythropoiesis, and the presence of bone marrow ringed sideroblasts. Sideroblasts are characterized by iron-loaded mitochondria clustered around the nucleus. SIDBA4 has been reported to be inherited as an autosomal recessive disease, with a pseudodominant pattern of inheritance in some families. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26491070}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Even-plus syndrome (EVPLS) [MIM:616854]: An autosomal recessive syndrome characterized by epiphyseal and vertebral dysplasia, prenatal-onset short stature, a distinct craniofacial phenotype with microtia, a flat facial profile with flat nose and triangular nares, cardiac malformations, and additional findings such as anal atresia, hypodontia, aplasia cutis, and others. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26598328}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
