Genes affected
UCP2 (HGNC:12518): (uncoupling protein 2) Mitochondrial uncoupling proteins (UCP) are members of the larger family of mitochondrial anion carrier proteins (MACP). UCPs separate oxidative phosphorylation from ATP synthesis with energy dissipated as heat, also referred to as the mitochondrial proton leak. UCPs facilitate the transfer of anions from the inner to the outer mitochondrial membrane and the return transfer of protons from the outer to the inner mitochondrial membrane. They also reduce the mitochondrial membrane potential in mammalian cells. Tissue specificity occurs for the different UCPs and the exact methods of how UCPs transfer H+/OH- are not known. UCPs contain the three homologous protein domains of MACPs. This gene is expressed in many tissues, with the greatest expression in skeletal muscle. It is thought to play a role in nonshivering thermogenesis, obesity and diabetes. Chromosomal order is 5'-UCP3-UCP2-3'. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGenetic Services Laboratory, University of ChicagoMay 13, 2020DNA sequence analysis of the UCP2 gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.799C>T, which results in the creation of a premature stop codon at amino acid position 267, p.Arg267*. This sequence change is predicted to result in an abnormal transcript, which may be degraded, or may lead to the production of a truncated UCP2 protein with potentially abnormal function. This sequence change has not been previously described in patients with hyperinsulinism. This sequence change has been described in the gnomAD database with a population frequency of 0.0056% (dbSNP rs748009040). Due to the lack of functional studies that conclusively demonstrate the effect of this variant on protein function, the fact that this variant is present in a proportion of individuals in control populations, the clinical significance of the p.Arg267* change remains unknown at this time. -
