Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the PCDH12 gene is commonly pathogenic or not. These statistics are base on transcript: NM_000016580.4. Only rare variants are included in the table.

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: Cellular adhesion molecule that may play an important role in cell-cell interactions at interendothelial junctions (By similarity). Acts as a regulator of cell migration, probably via increasing cell-cell adhesion (PubMed:21402705). Promotes homotypic calcium-dependent aggregation and adhesion and clusters at intercellular junctions (By similarity). Unable to bind to catenins, weakly associates with the cytoskeleton (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O55134, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21402705}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Microcephaly, seizures, spasticity, and brain calcifications (MISSBC) [MIM:251280]: An autosomal recessive syndrome characterized by congenital microcephaly, hypothalamic midbrain dysplasia, epilepsy, and severe global developmental delay with profound intellectual disability, spasticity or dystonia. Brain imaging shows intracerebral calcifications. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:27164683, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28804758}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
