MUTYH Gene (Protein Coding)

MutY DNA Glycosylase

GC01M045329
GIFtS:
44
This gene encodes a DNA glycosylase involved in oxidative DNA damage repair. The enzyme excises adenine bases from the DNA backbone at sites where adenine is inappropriately paired with guanine, cytosine, or 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine, a major oxidatively damaged DNA lesion. The protein is localized to the nucleus and mitochondria. This gene product is thought to play a role in s... See more...

Summaries for MUTYH Gene

Entrez Gene Summary for MUTYH Gene

  • This gene encodes a DNA glycosylase involved in oxidative DNA damage repair. The enzyme excises adenine bases from the DNA backbone at sites where adenine is inappropriately paired with guanine, cytosine, or 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine, a major oxidatively damaged DNA lesion. The protein is localized to the nucleus and mitochondria. This gene product is thought to play a role in signaling apoptosis by the introduction of single-strand breaks following oxidative damage. Mutations in this gene result in heritable predisposition to colorectal cancer, termed MUTYH-associated polyposis (MAP). Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2017]

  • Familial adenomatous polyposis 2 (FAP2) [MIM:608456]: A condition characterized by the development of multiple colorectal adenomatous polyps, benign neoplasms derived from glandular epithelium. Some affected individuals may develop colorectal carcinoma. {ECO:0000269 PubMed:11818965, ECO:0000269 PubMed:12606733, ECO:0000269 PubMed:12853198, ECO:0000269 PubMed:15366000, ECO:0000269 PubMed:16134147, ECO:0000269 PubMed:16287072, ECO:0000269 PubMed:16557584, ECO:0000269 PubMed:16941501, ECO:0000269 PubMed:18091433, ECO:0000269 PubMed:18515411, ECO:0000269 PubMed:19953527, ECO:0000269 PubMed:20418187, ECO:0000269 PubMed:20848659, ECO:0000269 PubMed:25820570, ECO:0000269 PubMed:26694661}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
  • Gastric cancer (GASC) [MIM:613659]: A malignant disease which starts in the stomach, can spread to the esophagus or the small intestine, and can extend through the stomach wall to nearby lymph nodes and organs. It also can metastasize to other parts of the body. The term gastric cancer or gastric carcinoma refers to adenocarcinoma of the stomach that accounts for most of all gastric malignant tumors. Two main histologic types are recognized, diffuse type and intestinal type carcinomas. Diffuse tumors are poorly differentiated infiltrating lesions, resulting in thickening of the stomach. In contrast, intestinal tumors are usually exophytic, often ulcerating, and associated with intestinal metaplasia of the stomach, most often observed in sporadic disease. {ECO:0000269 PubMed:15273732, ECO:0000269 PubMed:25820570}. Note=The gene represented in this entry may be involved in disease pathogenesis. Somatic mutations contribute to the development of a sub-set of sporadic gastric cancers in carriers of Helicobacter pylori (PubMed:15273732). {ECO:0000269 PubMed:15273732}.
