Variants pathogenicity by type
Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the U2AF1 gene is commonly pathogenic or not. These statistics are base on transcript: NM_000006758.3. Only rare variants are included in the table.
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: Plays a critical role in both constitutive and enhancer- dependent splicing by mediating protein-protein interactions and protein-RNA interactions required for accurate 3'-splice site selection. Recruits U2 snRNP to the branch point. Directly mediates interactions between U2AF2 and proteins bound to the enhancers and thus may function as a bridge between U2AF2 and the enhancer complex to recruit it to the adjacent intron. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22158538, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25311244, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8647433}.;
- Disease
- DISEASE: Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) [MIM:614286]: A heterogeneous group of closely related clonal hematopoietic disorders. All are characterized by a hypercellular or hypocellular bone marrow with impaired morphology and maturation, dysplasia of the myeloid, megakaryocytic and/or erythroid lineages, and peripheral blood cytopenias resulting from ineffective blood cell production. Included diseases are: refractory anemia (RA), refractory anemia with ringed sideroblasts (RARS), refractory anemia with excess blasts (RAEB), refractory cytopenia with multilineage dysplasia and ringed sideroblasts (RCMD-RS); chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) is a myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative disease. MDS is considered a premalignant condition in a subgroup of patients that often progresses to acute myeloid leukemia (AML). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22158538, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25311244}. Note=The gene represented in this entry may be involved in disease pathogenesis. Mutation altering U2AF1 function in the context of specific RNA sequences can lead to aberrant alternative splicing of target genes, some of which may be relevant for MDS pathogenesis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25311244}.;
