Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the KLF15 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: Transcriptional regulator that binds to the GA element of the CLCNKA promoter. Binds to the KCNIP2 promoter and regulates KCNIP2 circadian expression in the heart (By similarity). Is a repressor of CTGF expression, involved in the control of cardiac fibrosis. It is also involved in the control of cardiac hypertrophy acting through the inhibition of MEF2A and GATA4 (By similarity). Involved in podocyte differentiation (By similarity). Inhibits MYOCD activity. Is a negative regulator of TP53 acetylation. Inhibits NF-kappa-B activation through repression of EP300-dependent RELA acetylation. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18586263, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20375365, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20566642, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23999430}.
• Disease: DISEASE: Note=KLF15 deficiency results in loss of rhythmic QT variation and abnormal heart repolarization (PubMed:22367544). It may play a role in susceptibility to ventricular arrhythmias (PubMed:22367544), and development of pathological cardiac hypertrophy leading to heart failure (PubMed:20375365). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20375365, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22367544}.
