UniProtKB/SwissProt variant VAR

Variant information

Variant position:

219

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 Isoleucine (I) to Threonine (T) at position 219 (I219T, p.Ile219Thr).

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 hydrophobic (I) to medium size and polar (T)

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:

Hydrocephalus due to stenosis of the aqueduct of Sylvius (HSAS) [MIM:307000]: Hydrocephalus is a condition in which abnormal accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid in the brain causes increased intracranial pressure inside the skull. This is usually due to blockage of cerebrospinal fluid outflow in the brain ventricles or in the subarachnoid space at the base of the brain. In children is typically characterized by enlargement of the head, prominence of the forehead, brain atrophy, mental deterioration, and convulsions. In adults the syndrome includes incontinence, imbalance, and dementia. HSAS is characterized by mental retardation and enlarged brain ventricles. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10797421, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11857550, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12435569, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12514225, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19846429, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20621658, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22344793, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22973895, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24155914, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7562969, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7762552, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7881431, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7920659, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8401576, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8556302, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8929944, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9118141, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9195224, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9268105, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9521424, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9744477, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9832035}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. L1CAM mutations have also been found in few patients affected by hydrocephalus with Hirschsprung disease, suggesting a role of this gene acting either in a direct or indirect way in the pathogenesis of Hirschsprung disease (PubMed:22344793). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22344793}.

Sequence information

Variant position:

219

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

Protein sequence length:

1257

The length of the canonical sequence.

Location on the sequence:
