Gene: HLA-C
Feedback?
Variant information Variant position: help 363 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 Threonine (T) to Alanine (A) at position 363 (T363A, p.Thr363Ala). 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 (T) to small size and hydrophobic (A) The physico-chemical property of the reference and variant residues and the change implicated.
BLOSUM score: help 0 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 Displays lower polymorphism than HLA-A and HLA-B. Polymorphic residues encode for alpha-1 and alpha-2 domains of the peptide-binding cleft, where they contribute to variations in peptide binding and TCR recognition among different alleles. The human population is estimated to have millions of HLA-C alleles. But only 14 common HLA-C alleles are considered core alleles, representing all functionally significant variation (polymorphism) in alpha-1 and alpha-2 domains. These are: C*01:02; C*02:02; C*03:02; C*04:01; C*05:01; C*06:02; C*07:01; C*07:04; C*08:01; C*12:02; C*14:02; C*15:02; C*16:01 and C*17:01. Among these, C*01:02; C*02:02; C*03:02; C*08:01; C*12:02; C*14:02 and C*15:02, were likely passed by introgression from archaic to modern humans. Functional alleles of more recent origin (non-core) were derived by recombination (PubMed:28650991). The sequence shown is that of C*07:02. The sequences of core alleles and common representative alleles of serologically distinct allele groups are described as variants of C*07:02. Allelic variations of HLA-C signal peptide regulate HLA-E recognition by KLRD1-KLRC1 and KLRD1-KLRC2 receptors in viral infection and tumorigenesis by affecting its processing and by changing the affinity of HLA-E-VL9 complex for KLRD1-KLRC1 and KLRD1-KLRC2 receptors. Additional information on the polymorphism described.
Variant description: help In allele C*01:02, allele C*02:02, allele C*03:02, allele C*03:04, allele C*04:01, allele C*05:01, allele C*06:02, allele C*08:01, allele C*12:02, allele C*14:02, allele C*15:02, allele C*16:01, allele C*17:01 and allele C*18:01. Any additional useful information about the variant.

Sequence information Variant position: help 363 The position of the amino-acid change on the UniProtKB canonical protein sequence.
Protein sequence length: help 366 The length of the canonical sequence.
Location on the sequence: help GSCSQAACSNSAQGSDESLI T CKA 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.
