Variants pathogenicity by type
Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the SLC2A4 gene is commonly pathogenic or not. These statistics are base on transcript: NM_000001042.3. Only rare variants are included in the table.
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: Insulin-regulated facilitative glucose transporter.;
- Disease
- DISEASE: Diabetes mellitus, non-insulin-dependent (NIDDM) [MIM:125853]: A multifactorial disorder of glucose homeostasis caused by a lack of sensitivity to the body's own insulin. Affected individuals usually have an obese body habitus and manifestations of a metabolic syndrome characterized by diabetes, insulin resistance, hypertension and hypertriglyceridemia. The disease results in long-term complications that affect the eyes, kidneys, nerves, and blood vessels. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1521731, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1756912, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1918382}. Note=The disease may be caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
