PROP1

protein-coding

PROP paired-like homeobox 1, the group of PRD class homeoboxes and pseudogenes

Gene summary

This gene encodes a paired-like homeodomain transcription factor in the developing pituitary gland. Expression occurs prior to and is required for expression of pou domain transcription factor 1, which is responsible for pituitary development and hormone expression. Mutations in this gene have been associated with combined pituitary hormone deficiency-2 as well as deficiencies in luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, growth hormone, prolactin, and thyroid-stimulating hormone.

Manifestation: Endocrine

Intervention: Endocrine

Rationale: Hormone replacement therapy can be effective to treat multiple endocrinological deficiencies (eg, GH and thyroid hormone deficiency); Individuals may develop ACTH deficiency, and may require treatment including stress dose steroids; Medical interventions may be necessary to induce puberty

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_006261.5. 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.
