UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot P58753: Variant p.Arg13Trp

Toll/interleukin-1 receptor domain-containing adapter protein
Gene: TIRAP
Feedback?
Variant information Variant position: help 13 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 Tryptophan (W) at position 13 (R13W, p.Arg13Trp). 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 large size and aromatic (W) The physico-chemical property of the reference and variant residues and the change implicated.
BLOSUM score: help -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: help Genetic variations in TIRAP have been proposed to influence susceptibility or resistance to invasive pneumococcal disease, malaria [MIM:611162], and tuberculosis [MIM:607948]. It may define the bacteremia susceptibility locus 1 (BACTS1) [MIM:614382] (PubMed:17322885, PubMed:19602285). Indeed it has been reported that heterozygous carriage of p.Ser180Leu in populations from the U.K., Vietnam, and several African countries may confer protection against invasive pneumococcal disease, bacteremia, malaria, and tuberculosis (PubMed:17322885). However, analyzes of Russian, Ghanaian and Indonesian populations fail to replicate the association between p.Ser180Leu and susceptibility to tuberculosis formerly observed in West African and Algerian populations (PubMed:17322885, PubMed:18305471). Additional information on the polymorphism described.
Variant description: help Does not affect NF-kappa-B activation and TNF production. Any additional useful information about the variant.
Other resources: help Links to websites of interest for the variant.


Sequence information Variant position: help 13 The position of the amino-acid change on the UniProtKB canonical protein sequence.
Protein sequence length: help 221 The length of the canonical sequence.
Location on the sequence: help MASSTSLPAPGS R PKKPLGKMADWFRQTLLKKP 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.
Human                         MASSTSLPAPGSRPKKPLGKMADWFRQTLLKKP

Mouse                         MASSSSVPASSTPSKKPRDKIADWFRQALLKKP

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.
