TUG1

protein-coding

taurine up-regulated 1

Gene summary

Predicted to enable cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including mitochondrion organization; photoreceptor cell development; and spermatogenesis. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Biomarker of Huntington's disease. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jun 2026]

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript . 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.
