ClinVar

This is a list of variants' phenotypes submitted to ClinVar and linked to the MYF5 gene.

  • Ophthalmoplegia, external, with rib and vertebral anomalies (1 variants)

Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the MYF5 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 that promotes transcription of muscle-specific target genes and plays a role in muscle differentiation. Together with MYOG and MYOD1, co-occupies muscle-specific gene promoter core region during myogenesis. Induces fibroblasts to differentiate into myoblasts. Probable sequence specific DNA-binding protein.;
Pathway
Signaling pathways regulating pluripotency of stem cells - Homo sapiens (human);miRs in Muscle Cell Differentiation;Developmental Biology;CDO in myogenesis;Myogenesis;Regulation of nuclear beta catenin signaling and target gene transcription (Consensus)
