Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the SLC26A2 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: Sulfate transporter. May play a role in endochondral bone formation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:7923357}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Achondrogenesis 1B (ACG1B) [MIM:600972]: A form of achondrogenesis type 1, a lethal form of chondrodysplasia characterized by deficient ossification in the lumbar vertebrae and absent ossification in the sacral, pubic and ischial bones and clinically by stillbirth or early death. In addition to severe micromelia, there is a disproportionately large cranium due to marked edema of soft tissues. ACG1B is an autosomal recessive disease. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8528239}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Atelosteogenesis 2 (AO2) [MIM:256050]: A perinatal dysplasia characterized by shortening of the limbs, a dysmorphic syndrome and radiographic skeletal features. Patients are stillborn or die soon after birth. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8571951}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Multiple epiphyseal dysplasia 4 (EDM4) [MIM:226900]: A generalized skeletal dysplasia associated with significant morbidity. Joint pain, joint deformity, waddling gait, and short stature are the main clinical signs and symptoms. Radiological examination of the skeleton shows delayed, irregular mineralization of the epiphyseal ossification centers and of the centers of the carpal and tarsal bones. Multiple epiphyseal dysplasia is broadly categorized into the more severe Fairbank and the milder Ribbing types. The Fairbank type is characterized by shortness of stature, short and stubby fingers, small epiphyses in several joints, including the knee, ankle, hand, and hip. The Ribbing type is confined predominantly to the hip joints and is characterized by hands that are normal and stature that is normal or near-normal. Multiple epiphyseal dysplasia type 4 is a recessively inherited form, characterized by early childhood-onset hip dysplasia and recurrent patella dislocation. Short stature is not frequent. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12966518, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21922596}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
