TGM5

protein-coding

transglutaminase 5, the group of Transglutaminases

Gene summary

This gene encodes a member of the transglutaminase family. The encoded protein catalyzes formation of protein cross-links between glutamine and lysine residues, often resulting in stabilization of protein assemblies. This reaction is calcium dependent. Mutations in this gene have been associated with acral peeling skin syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_201631.4. 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
FUNCTION: Catalyzes the cross-linking of proteins and the conjugation of polyamines to proteins. Contributes to the formation of the cornified cell envelope of keratinocytes.;
Disease
DISEASE: Peeling skin syndrome 2 (PSS2) [MIM:609796]: A non- inflammatory and localized form of peeling skin syndrome, a genodermatosis characterized by the continuous shedding of the outer layers of the epidermis. In PSS2 patients, skin peeling is painless and strictly limited to the dorsa of the hands and feet. It is accompanied by painless erythema and spontaneous non- scarring healing. Ultrastructural and histological analysis shows a level of blistering high in the epidermis at the stratum granulosum-stratum corneum junction. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16380904}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
