Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the NOTCH2 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: Functions as a receptor for membrane-bound ligands Jagged-1 (JAG1), Jagged-2 (JAG2) and Delta-1 (DLL1) to regulate cell-fate determination. Upon ligand activation through the released notch intracellular domain (NICD) it forms a transcriptional activator complex with RBPJ/RBPSUH and activates genes of the enhancer of split locus (PubMed:21378985, PubMed:21378989). Affects the implementation of differentiation, proliferation and apoptotic programs (By similarity). Involved in bone remodeling and homeostasis. In collaboration with RELA/p65 enhances NFATc1 promoter activity and positively regulates RANKL- induced osteoclast differentiation (PubMed:29149593). Positively regulates self-renewal of liver cancer cells (PubMed:25985737). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O35516, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21378985, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21378989, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25985737, ECO:0000269|PubMed:29149593}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Alagille syndrome 2 (ALGS2) [MIM:610205]: A form of Alagille syndrome, an autosomal dominant multisystem disorder. It is clinically defined by hepatic bile duct paucity and cholestasis in association with cardiac, skeletal, and ophthalmologic manifestations. There are characteristic facial features and less frequent clinical involvement of the renal and vascular systems. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16773578}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Hajdu-Cheney syndrome (HJCYS) [MIM:102500]: A rare, autosomal dominant skeletal disorder characterized by the association of facial anomalies, acro-osteolysis, general osteoporosis, insufficient ossification of the skull, and periodontal disease (premature loss of permanent teeth). Other features include cleft palate, congenital heart defects, polycystic kidneys, orthopedic problems and anomalies of the genitalia, intestines and eyes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21378985, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21378989, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21681853, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21712856, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21793104, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23389697, ECO:0000269|PubMed:29149593}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. NOTCH2 nonsense and frameshift mutations associated with Hajdu-Cheney syndrome cluster to the last coding exon of the gene. Mutant mRNA products escape nonsense-mediated decay and the resulting truncated NOTCH2 proteins act in a gain-of-function manner (PubMed:21378989). The pathological mechanism at cellular level involves disruption of a high affinity degron recognized by FBXW7 at the C-terminus, loss of interaction with FBXW7, reduced ubiquitination and degradation, and increased NOTCH2 levels. Bone marrow cells derived from HJCYS patients have an enhanced capacity of osteoclastogenesis due to sustained NOTCH2 activity (PubMed:29149593). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21378989, ECO:0000269|PubMed:29149593}.;
