This is a list of variants' phenotypes submitted to ClinVar and linked to the AGRP gene.

Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the AGRP gene is commonly pathogenic or not.

In the table, we include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, Mane Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equals 1. Click the count to view the source variants.

Warning: slight differences between displayed counts and the number of variants in ClinVar may occur, primarily due to (1) the application of a different transcript and/or consequence by our variant effect predictor or (2) differences in clinical significance: we classify Benign/Likely benign variants as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic variants as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Plays a role in weight homeostasis. Involved in the control of feeding behavior through the central melanocortin system. Acts as alpha melanocyte-stimulating hormone antagonist by inhibiting cAMP production mediated by stimulation of melanocortin receptors within the hypothalamus and adrenal gland. Has very low activity with MC5R (By similarity). Is an inverse agonist for MC3R and MC4R being able to suppress their constitutive activity. It promotes MC3R and MC4R endocytosis in an arrestin-dependent manner. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10371151, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11145747, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15927146, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17041250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9892020}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Obesity (OBESITY) [MIM:601665]: A condition characterized by an increase of body weight beyond the limitation of skeletal and physical requirements, as the result of excessive accumulation of body fat. Note=Disease susceptibility is associated with variations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
