NLE1

protein-coding

notchless homolog 1, the group of WD repeat domain containing

Gene summary

Predicted to be involved in regulation of Notch signaling pathway. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including chordate embryonic development; hematopoietic stem cell homeostasis; and positive regulation of canonical Wnt signaling pathway. Located in nucleolus. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jun 2026]

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_018096.5. 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
FUNCTION: Plays a role in regulating Notch activity. Plays a role in regulating the expression of CDKN1A and several members of the Wnt pathway, probably via its effects on Notch activity. Required during embryogenesis for inner mass cell survival (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.;
