Variant information
Variant position:
103
The position of the amino-acid change on the UniProtKB canonical protein sequence.
Type of variant:
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:
From Valine (V) to Isoleucine (I) at position 103 (V103I, p.Val103Ile).
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:
Similar physico-chemical property. Both residues are medium size and hydrophobic.
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).

Polymorphism:
Genetic variations in MC4R define the body mass index quantitative trait locus 20 (BMIQ20) [MIM:618406 ]. MC4R loss-of-function variants are associated with higher body mass index, obesity, type 2 diabetes, and coronary artery disease. Gain-of-function variants have been reported to be associated with lower body mass index and resistance to obesity.
Additional information on the polymorphism described.
Variant description:
Probable protective factor against obesity, type 2 diabetes and coronary artery disease; common variant correlated with lower body mass index; increased MC4R signaling; increased surface expression.

Sequence information
Variant position:
103
The position of the amino-acid change on the UniProtKB canonical protein sequence.
Protein sequence length:
332
The length of the canonical sequence.
Location on the sequence:
ICSLAVADMLVSVSNGSETI
V ITLLNSTDTDAQSFTVNIDN
