SPINT2

protein-coding

serine peptidase inhibitor, Kunitz type 2

Gene summary

This gene encodes a transmembrane protein with two extracellular Kunitz domains that inhibits a variety of serine proteases. The protein inhibits HGF activator which prevents the formation of active hepatocyte growth factor. This gene is a putative tumor suppressor, and mutations in this gene result in congenital sodium diarrhea. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Manifestation: Craniofacial; Dermatologic; Gastrointestinal; Hematologic; Musculoskeletal; Ophthalmologic

Intervention: Gastrointestinal

Rationale: Due to fecal sodium loss, individuals may present with severe (potentially lethal) secretory diarrhea and related electrolyte/metabolic derangements, including hyponatremic metabolic acidosis, and recognition may allow appropriate medical management, which includes parenteral nutrition (weaning from parenteral nutrition, with oral sodium citrate supplementation, is possible in childhood

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_021102.4. 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: Inhibitor of HGF activator. Also inhibits plasmin, plasma and tissue kallikrein, and factor XIa.;
Disease
DISEASE: Diarrhea 3, secretory sodium, congenital, with or without other congenital anomalies (DIAR3) [MIM:270420]: A disease characterized by life-threatening secretory diarrhea, severe metabolic acidosis and hyponatremia. Hyponatremia is secondary to extraordinarily high fecal sodium loss, with low or normal excretion of urinary sodium, in the absence of infectious, autoimmune and endocrine causes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19185281}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
