Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the NTHL1 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: Bifunctional DNA N-glycosylase with associated apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) lyase function that catalyzes the first step in base excision repair (BER), the primary repair pathway for the repair of oxidative DNA damage. The DNA N-glycosylase activity releases the damaged DNA base from DNA by cleaving the N- glycosidic bond, leaving an AP site. The AP-lyase activity cleaves the phosphodiester bond 3' to the AP site by a beta-elimination. Primarily recognizes and repairs oxidative base damage of pyrimidines. Has also 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG) DNA glycosylase activity. Acts preferentially on DNA damage opposite guanine residues in DNA. Is able to process lesions in nucleosomes without requiring or inducing nucleosome disruption. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_03183, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10882850, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11328882, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11380260, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11695910, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12140329, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12144783, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12519758, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14734554, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15533839, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17923696, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20005182, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20110254, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21930793, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8990169, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9045706, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9705289, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9890904}.;
