Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the MECOM gene is commonly pathogenic or not. These statistics are base on transcript: NM_000004991.4. Only rare variants are included in the table.

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: Isoform 1: Functions as a transcriptional regulator binding to DNA sequences in the promoter region of target genes and regulating positively or negatively their expression. Oncogene which plays a role in development, cell proliferation and differentiation. May also play a role in apoptosis through regulation of the JNK and TGF-beta signaling. Involved in hematopoiesis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10856240, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11568182, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15897867, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16462766, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19767769, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9665135}.;
