ClinVar

This is a list of variants' phenotypes submitted to ClinVar and linked to the MTAP gene.

  • not provided (29 variants)
  • Inborn genetic diseases (11 variants)

Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the MTAP 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: Catalyzes the reversible phosphorylation of S-methyl-5'- thioadenosine (MTA) to adenine and 5-methylthioribose-1-phosphate. Involved in the breakdown of MTA, a major by-product of polyamine biosynthesis. Responsible for the first step in the methionine salvage pathway after MTA has been generated from S- adenosylmethionine. Has broad substrate specificity with 6- aminopurine nucleosides as preferred substrates. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_03155, ECO:0000269|PubMed:3091600}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Note=Loss of MTAP activity may play a role in human cancer. MTAP loss has been reported in a number of cancers, including osteosarcoma, malignant melanoma and gastric cancer.;
