Atrial fibrillation, familial, 18ADCardiovascularThe condition involves conduction disease with atrial fibrillation and reduced left atrial function, and early recognition may allow preventive measures and early medical and surgical management, which may ameliorate severe sequelaeCardiovascular25807286; 27066836
Although only affected adults have been described, earlier surveillance is anticipated to reveal sequelae in children with variants

Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the MYL4 gene is commonly pathogenic or not. These statistics are base on transcript: NM_000002476.2. 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: Regulatory light chain of myosin. Does not bind calcium.;
Disease
DISEASE: Atrial fibrillation, familial, 18 (ATFB18) [MIM:617280]: A familial form of atrial fibrillation, a common sustained cardiac rhythm disturbance. Atrial fibrillation is characterized by disorganized atrial electrical activity and ineffective atrial contraction promoting blood stasis in the atria and reduces ventricular filling. It can result in palpitations, syncope, thromboembolic stroke, and congestive heart failure. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:27066836}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
