Genes affected
LPIN2 (HGNC:14450): (lipin 2) Mouse studies suggest that this gene functions during normal adipose tissue development and may play a role in human triglyceride metabolism. This gene represents a candidate gene for human lipodystrophy, characterized by loss of body fat, fatty liver, hypertriglyceridemia, and insulin resistance. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 173 of the LPIN2 protein (p.Ala173Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs140609636, gnomAD 0.1%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with LPIN2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 536355). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt LPIN2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The LPIN2 c.517G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ala173Thr. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.14% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. Although we suspect that this variant may be benign, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
