Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the SCARB2 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: Acts as a lysosomal receptor for glucosylceramidase (GBA) targeting. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18022370}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Epilepsy, progressive myoclonic 4, with or without renal failure (EPM4) [MIM:254900]: An autosomal recessive progressive myoclonic epilepsy associated with renal failure in some cases. Cognitive function is preserved. Myoclonus is a brief, involuntary twitching of a muscle or a group of muscles. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18308289, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18424452, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19454373, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21670406}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Note=Genetic variants in SCARB2 can act as modifier of the phenotypic expression and severity of Gaucher disease. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21796727}.;
