UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot Q9UNQ0: Variant p.Phe373Cys

Broad substrate specificity ATP-binding cassette transporter ABCG2
Gene: ABCG2
Feedback?
Variant information Variant position: help 373 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 Phenylalanine (F) to Cysteine (C) at position 373 (F373C, p.Phe373Cys). 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 aromatic (F) to medium size and polar (C) The physico-chemical property of the reference and variant residues and the change implicated.
BLOSUM score: help -2 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 ABCG2 define the blood group Junior system (JR) [MIM:614490]. Individuals with Jr(a-) blood group lack the Jr(a) antigen on their red blood cells. These individuals may have anti-Jr(a) antibodies in their serum, which can cause transfusion reactions or hemolytic disease of the fetus or newborn. Although the clinical significance of the Jr(a-) blood group has been controversial, severe fatal hemolytic disease of the newborn has been reported. The Jr(a-) phenotype has a higher frequency in individuals of Asian descent, compared to those of European descent. The Jr(a-) phenotype is inherited as an autosomal recessive trait.Genetic variations in ABCG2 influence the variance in serum uric acid concentrations and define the serum uric acid concentration quantitative trait locus 1 (UAQTL1) [MIM:138900]. Excess serum accumulation of uric acid can lead to the development of gout, a common disorder characterized by tissue deposition of monosodium urate crystals as a consequence of hyperuricemia (PubMed:18834626, PubMed:19506252, PubMed:20368174). - Additional information on the polymorphism described.
Variant description: help Decreased protein abundance; decreased localization to the plasma membrane; no effect on ATPase-coupled transmembrane transporter activity. Any additional useful information about the variant.
Other resources: help Links to websites of interest for the variant.


Sequence information Variant position: help 373 The position of the amino-acid change on the UniProtKB canonical protein sequence.
Protein sequence length: help 655 The length of the canonical sequence.
Location on the sequence: help SGGEKKKKITVFKEISYTTS F CHQLRWVSKRSFKNLLGNPQ 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.

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.
