Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the PPP3CA 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: Calcium-dependent, calmodulin-stimulated protein phosphatase which plays an essential role in the transduction of intracellular Ca(2+)-mediated signals (PubMed:15671020, PubMed:18838687, PubMed:19154138, PubMed:23468591). Many of the substrates contain a PxIxIT motif and/or a LxVP motif (PubMed:17498738, PubMed:17502104, PubMed:23468591, PubMed:27974827, PubMed:22343722). In response to increased Ca(2+) levels, dephosphorylates and activates phosphatase SSH1 which results in cofilin dephosphorylation (PubMed:15671020). In response to increased Ca(2+) levels following mitochondrial depolarization, dephosphorylates DNM1L inducing DNM1L translocation to the mitochondrion (PubMed:18838687). Dephosphorylates heat shock protein HSPB1 (By similarity). Dephosphorylates and activates transcription factor NFATC1 (PubMed:19154138). In response to increased Ca(2+) levels, regulates NFAT-mediated transcription probably by dephosphorylating NFAT and promoting its nuclear translocation (PubMed:26248042). Dephosphorylates and inactivates transcription factor ELK1 (PubMed:19154138). Dephosphorylates DARPP32 (PubMed:19154138). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P48452, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15671020, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17498738, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17502104, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18838687, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19154138, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22343722, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23468591, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26248042, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27974827}.
• Disease: DISEASE: Epileptic encephalopathy, infantile or early childhood, 1 (IECEE1) [MIM:617711]: A form of epileptic encephalopathy, a heterogeneous group of severe childhood onset epilepsies characterized by refractory seizures, neurodevelopmental impairment, and poor prognosis. Development is normal prior to seizure onset, after which cognitive and motor delays become apparent. IECEE1 is an autosomal dominant condition with onset of seizures between the first weeks and first years of life. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:28942967}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
