Variant information Variant position: help 492 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 Arginine (R) to Glutamine (Q) at position 492 (R492Q, p.Arg492Gln). 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 large size and basic (R) to medium size and polar (Q) 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 KEL is responsible for the Kell blood group system. The molecular basis of the K=KEL1/k=KEL2 blood group antigens is a single variation in position 193; Thr-193 corresponds to KEL2 and Met-193 to KEL1 (PubMed:7849312). The molecular basis of the Kpa=KEL3/Kpb=KEL4/Kpc=KEL21 blood group antigens is a single variation in position 281; Arg-281 corresponds to KEL4, Trp-281 to KEL3 and Gln-281 to KEL21 (PubMed:8669078). The molecular basis of the Jsa=KEL6/Jsb=KEL7 blood group antigens is a single variation in position 597; Leu-597 corresponds to KEL7 and Pro-597 to KEL6 (PubMed:7570911). The molecular basis of the KEL11/KEL17 blood group antigens is a single variation in position 302; Val-302 corresponds to KEL11 and Ala-302 to KEL17 (PubMed:8669078). The molecular basis of the KEL14/KEL24 blood group antigens is a single variation in position 180; Arg-180 corresponds to KEL14 and Pro-180 to KEL24 (PubMed:9354821). Additional information on the polymorphism described.

Sequence information Variant position: help 492 The position of the amino-acid change on the UniProtKB canonical protein sequence.
Protein sequence length: help 732 The length of the canonical sequence.
Location on the sequence: help VAQLQVEMGASEWALKPELA R QEYNDIQLGSSFLQSVLSCV 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.
Residue conservation: help The multiple alignment of the region surrounding the variant against various orthologous sequences.
