NPAS1

protein-coding

neuronal PAS domain protein 1, the group of PAS domain containing|Basic helix-loop-helix proteins

Gene summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH)-PAS family of transcription factors. Studies of a related mouse gene suggest that it functions in neurons. The exact function of this gene is unclear, but it may play protective or modulatory roles during late embryogenesis and postnatal development. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_002517.4. 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: May control regulatory pathways relevant to schizophrenia and to psychotic illness. May play a role in late central nervous system development by modulating EPO expression in response to cellular oxygen level (By similarity). Forms a heterodimer that binds core DNA sequence 5'-TACGTG-3' within the hypoxia response element (HRE) leading to transcriptional repression on its target gene TH (By similarity). {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P97459}.;
