UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot Q14145: Variant p.Val167Phe

Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1
Gene: KEAP1
Feedback?
Variant information Variant position: help 167 The position of the amino-acid change on the UniProtKB canonical protein sequence.
Type of variant: help US 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 Valine (V) to Phenylalanine (F) at position 167 (V167F, p.Val167Phe). 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 Change from medium size and hydrophobic (V) to large size and aromatic (F) The physico-chemical property of the reference and variant residues and the change implicated.
BLOSUM score: help -1 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).

Variant description: help In a lung adenocarcinoma patient. Any additional useful information about the variant.


Sequence information Variant position: help 167 The position of the amino-acid change on the UniProtKB canonical protein sequence.
Protein sequence length: help 624 The length of the canonical sequence.
Location on the sequence: help MGEKCVLHVMNGAVMYQIDS V VRACSDFLVQQLDPSNAIGI 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 1 – 624 Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1
Site 151 – 151 Sensor for electrophilic agents
Modified residue 151 – 151 S-(2,3-dicarboxypropyl)cysteine; alternate
Modified residue 151 – 151 S-(2-succinyl)cysteine; alternate
Modified residue 151 – 151 S-nitrosocysteine; alternate
Cross 151 – 151 N5-[4-(S-L-cysteinyl)-5-methyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl]-L-ornithine (Cys-Arg) (interchain with R-135 in KEAP1)
Mutagenesis 151 – 151 C -> SNDL. Substitution with a small side chain that prevents covalent modification by an electrophile; promotes constitutive ubiquitination of NFE2L2/NRF2 and subsequent repression of phase 2 detoxifying enzymes. Resistance of ubiquitination of PGAM5 to inhibition by oxidative stress and sulforaphane. Impaired interaction with CUL3. Reduced formation of a high-molecular mass KEAP1 molecule when methylglyoxal accumulates.
Mutagenesis 151 – 151 C -> WY. Substitution with a bulky side chain that mimicks covalent modification by an electrophile; prevents ubiquitination and degradation of NFE2L2/NRF2, leading to constitutive activation of NFE2L2/NRF2 and subsequent expression of phase 2 detoxifying enzymes.
Helix 165 – 177
