ClinVar

This is a list of variants' phenotypes submitted to ClinVar and linked to the UMOD gene.

  • not provided (10 variants)
  • Familial juvenile hyperuricemic nephropathy type 1 (9 variants)
  • Autosomal dominant medullary cystic kidney disease with or without hyperuricemia (2 variants)
  • UMOD-related disorder (2 variants)
  • not specified (1 variants)

Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the UMOD 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: Uromodulin: Functions in biogenesis and organization of the apical membrane of epithelial cells of the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop (TALH), where it promotes formation of complex filamentous gel-like structure that may play a role in the water barrier permeability (Probable). May serve as a receptor for binding and endocytosis of cytokines (IL-1, IL-2) and TNF (PubMed:3498215). Facilitates neutrophil migration across renal epithelia (PubMed:20798515). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20798515, ECO:0000269|PubMed:3498215, ECO:0000305}.;
Disease
