Genes affected

UCP3 (HGNC:12519): (uncoupling protein 3) 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. The different UCPs have tissue-specific expression; this gene is primarily expressed in skeletal muscle. This gene's protein product is postulated to protect mitochondria against lipid-induced oxidative stress. Expression levels of this gene increase when fatty acid supplies to mitochondria exceed their oxidation capacity and the protein enables the export of fatty acids from mitochondria. UCPs contain the three solcar protein domains typically found in MACPs. Two splice variants have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2008]

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.842T>C (p.L281S) alteration is located in exon 7 (coding exon 6) of the UCP3 gene. This alteration results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 842, causing the leucine (L) at amino acid position 281 to be replaced by a serine (S). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: no assertion criteria provided

Collection Method: clinical testing

The UCP3 c.842T>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Leu281Ser. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.032% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 281 of the UCP3 protein (p.Leu281Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs371947420, gnomAD 0.03%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with UCP3-related conditions. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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. -
