ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_014594.3. 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: May function as a transcription repressor. Binds to 5'- CCACA-3' core sequence. Suppresses osteogenic effects of RUNX2. May be involved in osteoblastic differentiation (By similarity). Plays a role in postnatal myogenesis, may be involved in the regulation of satellite cells self-renewal (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q571J5, ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9EPU7, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15555547}.;
