Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points: 4P and 2B. PM1PM5BP4_Moderate

The NM_005912.3(MC4R):c.973C>A(p.Leu325Ile) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000558 in 1,614,006 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 16/21 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. L325F) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected
MC4R (HGNC:6932): (melanocortin 4 receptor) The protein encoded by this gene is a membrane-bound receptor and member of the melanocortin receptor family. The encoded protein interacts with adrenocorticotropic and MSH hormones and is mediated by G proteins. This is an intronless gene. Defects in this gene are a cause of autosomal dominant obesity.

BODY MASS INDEX QUANTITATIVE TRAIT LOCUS 20 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingNew York Genome CenterApr 15, 2022The c.973C>A, p.Leu325Ile missense variant in MC4R has been reported in individuals with obesity [PMID:32952152]. The variant has been observed in thirty-seven alleles with no homozygotes in the population databases (gnomAD v2.1.1 and v3.1.2, TOPMed Freeze 8). This substitution occurs at a position that is moderately conserved across species, and in silico analysis predicts this variant is probably benign to the protein structure/function. Based on the available evidence, the variant c.973C>A, p.Leu325Ile in the MC4R gene is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -
