Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the MSX1 gene is commonly pathogenic or not. These statistics are base on transcript: NM_000002448.3. 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: Acts as a transcriptional repressor. May play a role in limb-pattern formation. Acts in cranofacial development and specifically in odontogenesis. Expression in the developing nail bed mesenchyme is important for nail plate thickness and integrity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11369996, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12807959}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Tooth agenesis, selective, 1 (STHAG1) [MIM:106600]: A form of selective tooth agenesis, a common anomaly characterized by the congenital absence of one or more teeth. Selective tooth agenesis without associated systemic disorders has sometimes been divided into 2 types: oligodontia, defined as agenesis of 6 or more permanent teeth, and hypodontia, defined as agenesis of less than 6 teeth. The number in both cases does not include absence of third molars (wisdom teeth). STHAG1 can be associated with orofacial cleft in some patients. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12097313, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8696335}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Note=MSX1 is deleted in some patients with Wolf- Hirschhorn syndrome (WHS). WHS results from sub-telomeric deletions in the short arm of chromosome 4. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:1969845}.; DISEASE: Ectodermal dysplasia 3, Witkop type (ECTD3) [MIM:189500]: A form of ectodermal dysplasia, a heterogeneous group of disorders due to abnormal development of two or more ectodermal structures such as hair, teeth, nails and sweat glands, with or without any additional clinical sign. Each combination of clinical features represents a different type of ectodermal dysplasia. ECTD3 is characterized by abnormalities largely limited largely to teeth (some of which are missing) and nails (which are poorly formed early in life, especially toenails). This condition is distinguished from anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia by autosomal dominant inheritance and little involvement of hair and sweat glands. The teeth are not as severely affected. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11369996}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Non-syndromic orofacial cleft 5 (OFC5) [MIM:608874]: A birth defect consisting of cleft lips with or without cleft palate. Cleft lips are associated with cleft palate in two-third of cases. A cleft lip can occur on one or both sides and range in severity from a simple notch in the upper lip to a complete opening in the lip extending into the floor of the nostril and involving the upper gum. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12807959}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
