NCF1

protein-coding

neutrophil cytosolic factor 1

Gene summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a 47 kDa cytosolic subunit of neutrophil NADPH oxidase. This oxidase is a multicomponent enzyme that is activated to produce superoxide anion. Mutations in this gene have been associated with chronic granulomatous disease. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Manifestation: Allergy/Immunology/Infectious

Intervention: Allergy/Immunology/Infectious

Rationale: Surveillance for infections and infectious complications is indicatred, and preventive measures (eg, antibacterial/antifungal prophylaxis, interferon gamma) may be beneficial; To treat fungal infections, specific antifungal drugs may be beneficial, and longer treatment courses (as well as specific considerations including coadministration with corticosteroids) may be indicated in individuals with CGD; In some instances, HSCT may be beneficial; Certain agents should be avoided, including material that would allow fungal spore inhalation

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_000265.7. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

FUNCTION: NCF2, NCF1, and a membrane bound cytochrome b558 are required for activation of the latent NADPH oxidase (necessary for superoxide production). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19801500, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2547247, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2550933}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Granulomatous disease, chronic, cytochrome-b-positive 1, autosomal recessive (CGD1) [MIM:233700]: A disorder characterized by the inability of neutrophils and phagocytes to kill microbes that they have ingested. Patients suffer from life-threatening bacterial/fungal infections. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11133775, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23910690}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
