Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the RHAG 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: Associated with rhesus blood group antigen expression (PubMed:19744193). May be part of an oligomeric complex which is likely to have a transport or channel function in the erythrocyte membrane (PubMed:11062476, PubMed:11861637). Involved in ammonia transport across the erythrocyte membrane (PubMed:21849667, PubMed:22012326). Seems to act in monovalent cation transport (PubMed:18931342, PubMed:21849667). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11062476, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11861637, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18931342, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19744193, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21849667, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22012326}.
• Disease: DISEASE: Regulator type Rh-null hemolytic anemia (RHN) [MIM:268150]: Form of chronic hemolytic anemia in which the red blood cells have a stomatocytosis and spherocytosis morphology, an increased osmotic fragility, an altered ion transport system, and abnormal membrane phospholipid organization. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10467273, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8563755, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9454778, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9716608}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Overhydrated hereditary stomatocytosis (OHST) [MIM:185000]: An autosomal dominant disorder of red cell membrane permeability to monovalent cations, characterized by macrocytic hemolytic anemia of fluctuating severity, circulating erythrocytes with slit-like lucencies (stomata) evident on fixed, stained peripheral blood smears. OHST red cells exhibit cation leak, resulting in elevated cell sodium content with reduced potassium content. The disease is marked by splenomegaly or hepatosplenomegaly, cholelithiasis and a strong tendency for iron overload. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18931342, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21849667, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22012326}.
