Variant information Variant position: help 93 The position of the amino-acid change on the UniProtKB canonical protein sequence.
Type of variant: help LB/B The variants are classified into three categories: LP/P, LB/B and US.
  • LP/P: likely pathogenic or pathogenic.
  • LB/B: likely benign or benign.
  • US: uncertain significance

Residue change: help From Methionine (M) to Leucine (L) at position 93 (M93L, p.Met93Leu). Indicates the amino acid change of the variant. The one-letter and three-letter codes for amino acids used in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot are those adopted by the commission on Biochemical Nomenclature of the IUPAC-IUB.
Physico-chemical properties: help Similar physico-chemical property. Both residues are medium size and hydrophobic. The physico-chemical property of the reference and variant residues and the change implicated.
BLOSUM score: help 2 The score within a Blosum matrix for the corresponding wild-type to variant amino acid change. The log-odds score measures the logarithm for the ratio of the likelihood of two amino acids appearing by chance. The Blosum62 substitution matrix is used. This substitution matrix contains scores for all possible exchanges of one amino acid with another:
  • Lowest score: -4 (low probability of substitution).
  • Highest score: 11 (high probability of substitution).

Sequence information Variant position: help 93 The position of the amino-acid change on the UniProtKB canonical protein sequence.
Protein sequence length: help 134 The length of the canonical sequence.
Location on the sequence: help PTGVWKSREVATEGIRGHRK M VLYTLRAPRSPKMVQGSGCF The residue change on the sequence. Unless the variant is located at the beginning or at the end of the protein sequence, both residues upstream (20) and downstream (20) of the variant will be shown.
Residue conservation: help The multiple alignment of the region surrounding the variant against various orthologous sequences.

Sequence annotation in neighborhood: help The regions or sites of interest surrounding the variant. In general the features listed are posttranslational modifications, binding sites, enzyme active sites, local secondary structure or other characteristics reported in the cited references. The "Sequence annotation in neighborhood" lines have a fixed format:
  • Type: the type of sequence feature.
  • Positions: endpoints of the sequence feature.
  • Description: contains additional information about the feature.
TypePositionsDescription
Chain 27 – 134 Natriuretic peptides B
Peptide 27 – 102 NT-proBNP
Peptide 29 – 134 proBNP(3-108)
Glycosylation 74 – 74 O-linked (HexNAc...) threonine
Glycosylation 79 – 79 O-linked (HexNAc...) serine
Glycosylation 84 – 84 O-linked (HexNAc...) threonine; Partial
Glycosylation 97 – 97 O-linked (HexNAc...) threonine
Mutagenesis 97 – 97 T -> A. Prevents O-glycosylation at this residue. Decreased extracellular levels of NPPB due to decreased stability after secretion whereas extracellular levels of brain natriuretic peptide 32 is increased. In HEK293 cells, proteolytic processing by CORIN or FURIN is reduced but in HL1 cells proteolytic processing is not affected.
Mutagenesis 99 – 99 R -> A. Loss of FURIN-mediated proteolytic processing in HEK293 cells, however processing in HL1 cells, likely mediated by CORIN, is only slightly reduced. Loss of CORIN-mediated processing in HL1 cells; when associated with A-102 and A-105.
Mutagenesis 102 – 102 R -> A. Loss of FURIN-mediated proteolytic processing in HEK293 cells, however processing in HL1 cells, likely mediated by CORIN, is only slightly reduced. Loss of CORIN-mediated processing in HL1 cells; when associated with A-99 and A-105.
Mutagenesis 105 – 105 K -> A. No effect on proteolytic processing in HEK293 or HL1 cells. Loss of CORIN-mediated processing in HL1 cells; when associated with A-99 and A-102.
