UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot P26439: Variant p.Glu142Lys

3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase/Delta 5-->4-isomerase type 2
Gene: HSD3B2
Variant information

Variant position:  142
The position of the amino-acid change on the UniProtKB canonical protein sequence.

Type of variant:  Disease [Disclaimer]
The variants are classified into three categories: Disease, Polymorphism and Unclassified.
  • Disease: Variants implicated in disease according to literature reports.
  • Polymorphism: Variants not reported to be implicated in disease.
  • Unclassified: Variants with uncertain implication in disease according to literature reports. Evidence against or in favor of a pathogenic role is limited and/or conflicting.

Residue change:  From Glutamate (E) to Lysine (K) at position 142 (E142K, p.Glu142Lys).
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:  Change from medium size and acidic (E) to large size and basic (K)
The physico-chemical property of the reference and variant residues and the change implicated.

BLOSUM score:  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).

Involvement in disease:  Adrenal hyperplasia 2 (AH2) [MIM:201810]: A form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, a common recessive disease due to defective synthesis of cortisol. Congenital adrenal hyperplasia is characterized by androgen excess leading to ambiguous genitalia in affected females, rapid somatic growth during childhood in both sexes with premature closure of the epiphyses and short adult stature. Four clinical types: 'salt wasting' (SW, the most severe type), 'simple virilizing' (SV, less severely affected patients), with normal aldosterone biosynthesis, 'non-classic form' or late-onset (NC or LOAH) and 'cryptic' (asymptomatic). In AH2, virilization is much less marked or does not occur. AH2 is frequently lethal in early life. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10599696, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10651755, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10843183, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12050213, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18252794, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22579964, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7608265, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7633426, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7633460, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7833923, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7893703, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7962268, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8060486, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8126127, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8185809, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8316254, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9719627}.

Sequence information

Variant position:  142
The position of the amino-acid change on the UniProtKB canonical protein sequence.

Protein sequence length:  372
The length of the canonical sequence.

Location on the sequence:   TSSIEVAGPNSYKEIIQNGH  E EEPLENTWPTPYPYSKKLAE
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.
