Genes affected
RBP4 (HGNC:9922): (retinol binding protein 4) This protein belongs to the lipocalin family and is the specific carrier for retinol (vitamin A alcohol) in the blood. It delivers retinol from the liver stores to the peripheral tissues. In plasma, the RBP-retinol complex interacts with transthyretin which prevents its loss by filtration through the kidney glomeruli. A deficiency of vitamin A blocks secretion of the binding protein posttranslationally and results in defective delivery and supply to the epidermal cells. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
FFAR4 (HGNC:19061): (free fatty acid receptor 4) This gene encodes a G protein-coupled receptor (GPR) which belongs to the rhodopsin family of GPRs. The encoded protein functions as a receptor for free fatty acids, including omega-3, and participates in suppressing anti-inflammatory responses and insulin sensitizing. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012]

This sequence change falls in intron 5 of the RBP4 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the RBP4 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs757077488, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with RBP4-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1896307). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. 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. -
