Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the SLC24A5 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: Cation exchanger involved in pigmentation, possibly by participating in ion transport in melanosomes. Predominant sodium- Calcium exchanger in melanocytes. Probably transports 1 Ca(2+) and 1 K(+) to the melanosome in exchange for 4 cytoplasmic Na(+). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16357253, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18166528}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Albinism, oculocutaneous, 6 (OCA6) [MIM:113750]: A disorder characterized by a reduction or complete loss of melanin in the skin, hair and eyes. Patients show reduced or lacking pigmentation often accompanied by eye symptoms such as photophobia, strabismus, moderate to severe visual impairment, and nystagmus. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23364476}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
