Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the STAT3 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: Signal transducer and transcription activator that mediates cellular responses to interleukins, KITLG/SCF, LEP and other growth factors (PubMed:10688651, PubMed:12359225, PubMed:12873986, PubMed:15194700, PubMed:17344214, PubMed:18242580, PubMed:23084476). Once activated, recruits coactivators, such as NCOA1 or MED1, to the promoter region of the target gene (PubMed:17344214). May mediate cellular responses to activated FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3 and FGFR4 (PubMed:12873986). Binds to the interleukin-6 (IL-6)-responsive elements identified in the promoters of various acute-phase protein genes (PubMed:12359225). Activated by IL31 through IL31RA (PubMed:15194700). Acts as a regulator of inflammatory response by regulating differentiation of naive CD4(+) T-cells into T-helper Th17 or regulatory T-cells (Treg): deacetylation and oxidation of lysine residues by LOXL3, leads to disrupt STAT3 dimerization and inhibit its transcription activity (PubMed:28065600). Involved in cell cycle regulation by inducing the expression of key genes for the progression from G1 to S phase, such as CCND1 (PubMed:17344214). Mediates the effects of LEP on melanocortin production, body energy homeostasis and lactation (By similarity). May play an apoptotic role by transctivating BIRC5 expression under LEP activation (PubMed:18242580). Cytoplasmic STAT3 represses macroautophagy by inhibiting EIF2AK2/PKR activity (PubMed:23084476). Plays a crucial role in basal beta cell functions, such as regulation of insulin secretion (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P42227, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10688651, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12359225, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12873986, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15194700, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17344214, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18242580, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23084476, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28065600}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Hyperimmunoglobulin E recurrent infection syndrome, autosomal dominant (AD-HIES) [MIM:147060]: A rare disorder of immunity and connective tissue characterized by immunodeficiency, chronic eczema, recurrent Staphylococcal infections, increased serum IgE, eosinophilia, distinctive coarse facial appearance, abnormal dentition, hyperextensibility of the joints, and bone fractures. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17676033, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17881745, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23342295, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26293184}.

Other features include short stature, non-specific dermatitis, hypothyroidism, autoimmune arthritis, and delayed puberty. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25038750, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28073828}.
