Mutations & Variants

Hotspot Mutations
Variant Type Frequency Functional Description
c.1234C>T (p.Arg412Trp) Missense <0.01% Unknown significance
c.567_568del (p.Glu189fs) Frameshift <0.01% Likely loss of function
Mutation functional classification

Loss of Function (LOF)

Frameshift mutations likely lead to truncated, non-functional protein.

Gain of Function (GOF)

No evidence of gain-of-function mutations.

Dominant Negative (DN)

No evidence of dominant-negative effects.

Gene Ontology (GO)

• mRNA polyadenylation • RNA binding
• nucleotidyltransferase activity • nucleus

Pathways
