The 5 VWFD Repeats and their disease

S.NOUniprot ID Protein Name Sequence LengthVWFD Repeats regionDisease
1 Q6ZRI0 Otogelin2925"DISEASE: Deafness, autosomal recessive, 18B (DFNB18B) [MIM:614945]: A form of non-syndromic deafness characterized by a moderate hearing impairment, which can be associated with vestibular dysfunction, and a flat to shallow ""U"" or slightly downsloping shaped audiograms.
Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry".
2 Q3ZCN5 Otogelin-like protein2332"DISEASE: Deafness, autosomal recessive, 84B (DFNB84B) [MIM:614944]: A form of non-syndromic deafness characterized by congenital, non-progressive, sensorineural, symmetric hearing loss.
Vestibular hypofunction is rarely observed.
Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry".
3 P04275 von Willebrand factor 2813"DISEASE: von Willebrand disease 1 (VWD1) [MIM:193400]: A common hemorrhagic disorder due to defects in von Willebrand factor protein and resulting in impaired platelet aggregation.
Von Willebrand disease type 1 is characterized by partial quantitative deficiency of circulating von Willebrand factor, that is otherwise structurally and functionally normal.
Clinical manifestations are mucocutaneous bleeding, such as epistaxis and menorrhagia, and prolonged bleeding after surgery or trauma.
Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
; DISEASE: von Willebrand disease 2 (VWD2) [MIM:613554]: A hemorrhagic disorder due to defects in von Willebrand factor protein and resulting in altered platelet aggregation.
Von Willebrand disease type 2 is characterized by qualitative deficiency and functional anomalies of von Willebrand factor.
It is divided in different subtypes including 2A, 2B, 2M and 2N (Normandy variant).
The mutant VWF protein in types 2A, 2B and 2M are defective in their platelet-dependent function, whereas the mutant protein in type 2N is defective in its ability to bind factor VIII.
Clinical manifestations are mucocutaneous bleeding, such as epistaxis and menorrhagia, and prolonged bleeding after surgery or trauma.
Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
; DISEASE: von Willebrand disease 3 (VWD3) [MIM:277480]: A severe hemorrhagic disorder due to a total or near total absence of von Willebrand factor in the plasma and cellular compartments, also leading to a profound deficiency of plasmatic factor VIII.
Bleeding usually starts in infancy and can include epistaxis, recurrent mucocutaneous bleeding, excessive bleeding after minor trauma, and hemarthroses.
Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry".
4 Q9HC84 Mucin-5B 5762"DISEASE: Pulmonary fibrosis, idiopathic (IPF) [MIM:178500]: A lung disease characterized by shortness of breath, radiographically evident diffuse pulmonary infiltrates, and varying degrees of inflammation and fibrosis on biopsy.
In some cases, the disorder can be rapidly progressive and characterized by sequential acute lung injury with subsequent scarring and end-stage lung disease.
Note=Disease susceptibility is associated with variations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
A common polymorphism in the promoter of MUC5B is associated with familial interstitial pneumonia and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, suggesting that dysregulated MUC5B expression in the lung may be involved in the pathogenesis of pulmonary fibrosis (PubMed:21506741)".
5 O75443 Alpha-tectorin2155"DISEASE: Deafness, autosomal dominant, 12 (DFNA12) [MIM:601543]: A form of non-syndromic sensorineural hearing loss.
Sensorineural deafness results from damage to the neural receptors of the inner ear, the nerve pathways to the brain, or the area of the brain that receives sound information.
Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
; DISEASE: Deafness, autosomal recessive, 21 (DFNB21) [MIM:603629]: A form of non-syndromic sensorineural hearing loss.
Sensorineural deafness results from damage to the neural receptors of the inner ear, the nerve pathways to the brain, or the area of the brain that receives sound information.
Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry".
