Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the MYO5A 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: Processive actin-based motor that can move in large steps approximating the 36-nm pseudo-repeat of the actin filament. Involved in melanosome transport. Also mediates the transport of vesicles to the plasma membrane. May also be required for some polarization process involved in dendrite formation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10448864}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Griscelli syndrome 3 (GS3) [MIM:609227]: Rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by pigmentary dilution of the skin and hair, the presence of large clumps of pigment in hair shafts, and an accumulation of melanosomes in melanocytes, without other clinical manifestations. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12897212}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Elejalde syndrome (ELEJAS) [MIM:256710]: Autosomal recessive condition characterized by skin hypopigmentation, the presence of large clumps of pigment in hair shafts, silvery-gray hair, accumulation of melanosomes in melanocytes and primary neurological abnormalities. Elejalde syndrome may be the same entity as Griscelli syndrome type I. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12058346}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
