UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot P08123: Variant p.Gly676Val

Collagen alpha-2(I) chain
Gene: COL1A2
Chromosomal location: 7q22.1
Variant information

Variant position:  676
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 Glycine (G) to Valine (V) at position 676 (G676V, p.Gly676Val).
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 glycine (G) to medium size and hydrophobic (V)
The physico-chemical property of the reference and variant residues and the change implicated.

BLOSUM score:  -3
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:  Osteogenesis imperfecta 4 (OI4) [MIM:166220]: An autosomal dominant form of osteogenesis imperfecta, a connective tissue disorder characterized by low bone mass, bone fragility and susceptibility to fractures after minimal trauma. Disease severity ranges from very mild forms without fractures to intrauterine fractures and perinatal lethality. Extraskeletal manifestations, which affect a variable number of patients, are dentinogenesis imperfecta, hearing loss, and blue sclerae. OI4 is characterized by moderately short stature, mild to moderate scoliosis, grayish or white sclera and dentinogenesis imperfecta. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1642148, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16786509, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16879195, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2052622, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2064612, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2897363, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7693712, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8094076, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8401517, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8800927}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Involvement in disease:  Osteogenesis imperfecta 3 (OI3) [MIM:259420]: An autosomal dominant form of osteogenesis imperfecta, a connective tissue disorder characterized by low bone mass, bone fragility and susceptibility to fractures after minimal trauma. Disease severity ranges from very mild forms without fractures to intrauterine fractures and perinatal lethality. Extraskeletal manifestations, which affect a variable number of patients, are dentinogenesis imperfecta, hearing loss, and blue sclerae. OI3 is characterized by progressively deforming bones, very short stature, a triangular face, severe scoliosis, grayish sclera and dentinogenesis imperfecta. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10408781, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16786509, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16879195, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1990009, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7520724, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7720740, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7749416, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7860070, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7881420, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8081394, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8444468, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8456807, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8723681, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8800927, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8829649}.
