Genes affected

LEPR (HGNC:6554): (leptin receptor) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the gp130 family of cytokine receptors that are known to stimulate gene transcription via activation of cytosolic STAT proteins. This protein is a receptor for leptin (an adipocyte-specific hormone that regulates body weight), and is involved in the regulation of fat metabolism, as well as in a novel hematopoietic pathway that is required for normal lymphopoiesis. Mutations in this gene have been associated with obesity and pituitary dysfunction. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. It is noteworthy that this gene and LEPROT gene (GeneID:54741) share the same promoter and the first 2 exons, however, encode distinct proteins (PMID:9207021).[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2010]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 5 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Start lost variant, next in-frame start position is after 2 pathogenic variants. Next in-frame start position is after 111 CDS bases. Genomic position: 65570543. Lost 0.032 part of the original CDS.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 1-65565568-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-65565568-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 3357044.Status of the report is no_assertion_criteria_provided, 0 stars.

The LEPR c.3G>A variant is predicted to disrupt the translation initiation site (Start Loss). This variant has been reported in the homozygous state in an individual with severe obesity (Courbage et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 34097736). A different start loss variant ( c.2T>C) has also been reported in the homozygous state in an individual with severe obesity (Saeed et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32349990). This variant has not been reported in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -
