Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the ZNF423 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: Transcription factor that can both act as an activator or a repressor depending on the context. Plays a central role in BMP signaling and olfactory neurogenesis. Associates with SMADs in response to BMP2 leading to activate transcription of BMP target genes. Acts as a transcriptional repressor via its interaction with EBF1, a transcription factor involved in terminal olfactory receptor neurons differentiation; this interaction preventing EBF1 to bind DNA and activate olfactory-specific genes. Involved in olfactory neurogenesis by participating in a developmental switch that regulates the transition from differentiation to maturation in olfactory receptor neurons. Controls proliferation and differentiation of neural precursors in cerebellar vermis formation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10660046}.
• Disease: DISEASE: Nephronophthisis 14 (NPHP14) [MIM:614844]: An autosomal recessive disorder manifesting as infantile-onset kidney disease, cerebellar vermis hypoplasia, and situs inversus. Nephronophthisis is a progressive tubulo-interstitial kidney disorder histologically characterized by modifications of the tubules with thickening of the basement membrane, interstitial fibrosis and, in the advanced stages, medullary cysts. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22863007}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Joubert syndrome 19 (JBTS19) [MIM:614844]: A form of Joubert syndrome, a disorder presenting with cerebellar ataxia, oculomotor apraxia, hypotonia, neonatal breathing abnormalities and psychomotor delay. Neuroradiologically, it is characterized by cerebellar vermian hypoplasia/aplasia, thickened and reoriented superior cerebellar peduncles, and an abnormally large interpeduncular fossa, giving the appearance of a molar tooth on transaxial slices (molar tooth sign). JBTS19 patients have polycystic kidney disease, Leber congenital amaurosis, cerebellar vermis hypoplasia, and breathing abnormality. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22863007}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
