Perching syndrome (Crisponi/Cold-induced sweating syndrome 3)AR

Manifestation: Musculoskeletal; Neurologic; Ophthalmologic

Intervention: Musculoskeletal

Rationale: In the neonatal/early childhood period, the condition can be lethal unless advanced care is instituted; Later, it has been described that cold-induced sweating was alleviated by medical treatment (eg, with clonidine)

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_001031710.3. 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: Substrate-specific adapter of a BCR (BTB-CUL3-RBX1) E3 ubiquitin ligase complex. The BCR(KLHL7) complex acts by mediating ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of substrate proteins. Probably mediates 'Lys-48'-linked ubiquitination. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21828050}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Retinitis pigmentosa 42 (RP42) [MIM:612943]: A retinal dystrophy belonging to the group of pigmentary retinopathies. Retinitis pigmentosa is characterized by retinal pigment deposits visible on fundus examination and primary loss of rod photoreceptor cells followed by secondary loss of cone photoreceptors. Patients typically have night vision blindness and loss of midperipheral visual field. As their condition progresses, they lose their far peripheral visual field and eventually central vision as well. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19520207, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20547956, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21828050, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22084217}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
