Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the PCLO 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: May act as a scaffolding protein involved in the organization of synaptic active zones and in synaptic vesicle trafficking. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9QYX7}.
• Disease: DISEASE: Pontocerebellar hypoplasia 3 (PCH3) [MIM:608027]: A form of pontocerebellar hypoplasia, a disorder characterized by structural defects of the pons and cerebellum. Brain MRI shows an abnormally small cerebellum and brainstem, decreased cerebral white matter, and a thin corpus callosum. PCH3 features include seizures, short stature, optic atrophy, progressive microcephaly, severe developmental delay. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25832664}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
