Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the SCP2 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: Mediates in vitro the transfer of all common phospholipids, cholesterol and gangliosides between membranes. May play a role in regulating steroidogenesis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17157249, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8300590}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Leukoencephalopathy with dystonia and motor neuropathy (LKDMN) [MIM:613724]: A syndrome characterized by leukoencephalopathy, dystonic head tremor, spasmodic torticollis and reduced tendon reflexes in lower extremities. Additional features include hyposmia, pathologic saccadic eye movements, a slight hypoacusis, accumulation of branched-chain pristanic acid in plasma, and the presence of abnormal bile alcohol glucuronides in urine. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16685654}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
