Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the MAFB 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: Acts as a transcriptional activator or repressor (PubMed:27181683). Plays a pivotal role in regulating lineage- specific hematopoiesis by repressing ETS1-mediated transcription of erythroid-specific genes in myeloid cells. Required for monocytic, macrophage, osteoclast, podocyte and islet beta cell differentiation. Involved in renal tubule survival and F4/80 maturation. Activates the insulin and glucagon promoters. Together with PAX6, transactivates weakly the glucagon gene promoter through the G1 element. SUMO modification controls its transcriptional activity and ability to specify macrophage fate. Binds element G1 on the glucagon promoter (By similarity). Involved either as an oncogene or as a tumor suppressor, depending on the cell context. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P54841, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19143053, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27181683}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Multicentric carpotarsal osteolysis syndrome (MCTO) [MIM:166300]: A rare skeletal disorder, usually presenting in early childhood with a clinical picture mimicking juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. Progressive destruction of the carpal and tarsal bone usually occurs and other bones may also be involved. Chronic renal failure is a frequent component of the syndrome. Mental retardation and minor facial anomalies have been noted in some patients. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22387013}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Duane retraction syndrome 3 with or without deafness (DURS3) [MIM:617041]: A form of Duane retraction syndrome, a congenital eye movement disorder characterized by a failure of cranial nerve VI (the abducens nerve) to develop normally, resulting in restriction or absence of abduction, adduction or both, narrowing of the palpebral fissure, and retraction of the globe on attempted adduction. Undiagnosed in children, it can lead to amblyopia, a permanent uncorrectable loss of vision. Some DURS3 patients manifest sensorineural hearing loss. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:27181683}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
