Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the SCN11A 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: This protein mediates the voltage-dependent sodium ion permeability of excitable membranes. Assuming opened or closed conformations in response to the voltage difference across the membrane, the protein forms a sodium-selective channel through which sodium ions may pass in accordance with their electrochemical gradient. It is a tetrodotoxin-resistant sodium channel isoform. Also involved, with the contribution of the receptor tyrosine kinase NTRK2, in rapid BDNF-evoked neuronal depolarization. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10580103, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12384689}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Neuropathy, hereditary sensory and autonomic, 7 (HSAN7) [MIM:615548]: A form of hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy, a genetically and clinically heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by degeneration of dorsal root and autonomic ganglion cells, and by sensory and/or autonomic abnormalities. HSAN7 is characterized by congenital inability to experience pain resulting in self-mutilations, slow-healing wounds, and multiple painless fractures. mild muscle weakness, delayed motor development, slightly reduced motor and sensory nerve conduction velocities, hyperhidrosis and gastrointestinal dysfunction. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:24036948, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26645915}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Episodic pain syndrome, familial, 3 (FEPS3) [MIM:615552]: An autosomal dominant neurologic disorder characterized by paroxysmal pain mainly affecting the distal lower extremities and occasionally the upper body, especially the joints of fingers and arms. The pain is exacerbated with fatigue. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:24207120, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24776970, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25791876, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27224030}.
