Genes affected

MUC5B (HGNC:7516): (mucin 5B, oligomeric mucus/gel-forming) This gene encodes a member of the mucin family of proteins, which are highly glycosylated macromolecular components of mucus secretions. This family member is the major gel-forming mucin in mucus. It is a major contributor to the lubricating and viscoelastic properties of whole saliva, normal lung mucus and cervical mucus. This gene has been found to be up-regulated in some human diseases, including sinus mucosa of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS), CRS with nasal polyposis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and H. pylori-associated gastric disease, and it may be involved in the pathogenesis of these diseases.

The c.391C>T (p.R131C) alteration is located in exon 4 (coding exon 4) of the MUC5B gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 391, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 131 to be replaced by a cysteine (C). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
