SEPTIN12

protein-coding

septin 12, the group of Septins

Gene summary

This gene encodes a guanine-nucleotide binding protein and member of the septin family of cytoskeletal GTPases. Septins play important roles in cytokinesis, exocytosis, embryonic development, and membrane dynamics. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_144605.5. 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.

Function
FUNCTION: Filament-forming cytoskeletal GTPase (By similarity). Involved in spermatogenesis. Involved in the morphogenesis of sperm heads and the elongation of sperm tails probably implicating the association with alpha- and beta-tubulins (PubMed:24213608). Forms a filamentous structure with SEPT7, SEPT6, SEPT2 and probably SEPT4 at the sperm annulus which is required for the structural integrity and motility of the sperm tail during postmeiotic differentiation (PubMed:25588830). May play a role in cytokinesis (Potential). {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24213608, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25588830, ECO:0000305}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Spermatogenic failure 10 (SPGF10) [MIM:614822]: An infertility disorder caused by spermatogenesis defects. It results in decreased sperm motility, concentration, and multiple sperm structural defects. The most prominent feature is a defective sperm annulus, a ring structure that demarcates the midpiece and the principal piece of the sperm tail. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22275165, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25588830, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25775403}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
