Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the SYNGAP1 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: Major constituent of the PSD essential for postsynaptic signaling. Inhibitory regulator of the Ras-cAMP pathway. Member of the NMDAR signaling complex in excitatory synapses, it may play a role in NMDAR-dependent control of AMPAR potentiation, AMPAR membrane trafficking and synaptic plasticity. Regulates AMPAR- mediated miniature excitatory postsynaptic currents. Exhibits dual GTPase-activating specificity for Ras and Rap. May be involved in certain forms of brain injury, leading to long-term learning and memory deficits (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Mental retardation, autosomal dominant 5 (MRD5) [MIM:612621]: A disorder characterized by significantly below average general intellectual functioning associated with impairments in adaptive behavior and manifested during the developmental period. MRD5 patients show global developmental delay with delayed motor development, hypotonia, moderate-to- severe mental retardation, and severe language impairment. Epilepsy and autism can be present in some patients. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19196676, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21076407, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21237447, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23161826, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23708187}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
