Genes affected
ATF6 (HGNC:791): (activating transcription factor 6) This gene encodes a transcription factor that activates target genes for the unfolded protein response (UPR) during endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. Although it is a transcription factor, this protein is unusual in that it is synthesized as a transmembrane protein that is embedded in the ER. It functions as an ER stress sensor/transducer, and following ER stress-induced proteolysis, it functions as a nuclear transcription factor via a cis-acting ER stress response element (ERSE) that is present in the promoters of genes encoding ER chaperones. This protein has been identified as a survival factor for quiescent but not proliferative squamous carcinoma cells. There have been conflicting reports about the association of polymorphisms in this gene with diabetes in different populations, but another polymorphism has been associated with increased plasma cholesterol levels. This gene is also thought to be a potential therapeutic target for cystic fibrosis. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 09, 2022This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu3*) in the ATF6 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ATF6 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 26029869, 26063662, 26070061). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1457758). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ATF6-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs778741081, gnomAD 0.003%). -
