Salivary acidic proline-rich phosphoprotein 1/2
Gene: PRH2
Feedback?
Variant information Variant position: help 163 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 Glutamine (Q) to Lysine (K) at position 163 (Q163K, p.Gln163Lys). 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 polar (Q) to large size and basic (K) 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).

Polymorphism: help Sequence shown is that of allele PRH1-PIF, which is the most frequent allele (68% of the population). The PRH1-DB allele (about 16% of the population) has an insertion of 21 repeated amino acids compared to the PRH1-PIF allele. Allele PRH2-2, also known as PR-2, allele PRH2-1 is also known as PR-1 or protein C, and allele PRH2-3 as PR-1'. In contrast to all other PRH1 and PRH2 alleles, the PRH1-PA allele (16%) is not proteolytically cleaved. Additional information on the polymorphism described.
Variant description: help In allele PRH2-3. Any additional useful information about the variant.
Other resources: help Links to websites of interest for the variant.


Sequence information Variant position: help 163 The position of the amino-acid change on the UniProtKB canonical protein sequence.
Protein sequence length: help 166 The length of the canonical sequence.
Location on the sequence: help PGKPQGPPPQGGRPQGPPQG Q SPQ 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.
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.
