Genes affected
MC3R (HGNC:6931): (melanocortin 3 receptor) This gene encodes a G-protein-coupled receptor for melanocyte-stimulating hormone and adrenocorticotropic hormone that is expressed in tissues other than the adrenal cortex and melanocytes. This gene maps to the same region as the locus for benign neonatal epilepsy. Mice deficient for this gene have increased fat mass despite decreased food intake, suggesting a role for this gene product in the regulation of energy homeostasis. Mutations in this gene are associated with a susceptibility to obesity in humans. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

MC3R-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesOct 08, 2023The MC3R c.149T>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ile50Thr. This variant has been reported as a heterozygous variant of uncertain significance in three different studies of obesity (Cooiman et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 31650404, Table S3; Kleinendorst et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29970488, Table 2; Calton et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19091795, Table 1, described as c.260T>C, Ile87Thr). In vitro studies provide conflicting results on this variant's impact on protein function (reported as I87T in Yang et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22884546; Table S2, Duckett et al. 2023. PubMed ID: 37339320). Another study indicates there is no statistically significant difference in median BMI for carriers of this variant compared to matched controls (Melvin et al. 2020. https://doi.org/10.1210/jendso/bvaa046.2097). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
