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. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]
MC4R Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):
  • inherited obesity
    Inheritance: AD Classification: STRONG Submitted by: Laboratory for Molecular Medicine
  • obesity due to melanocortin 4 receptor deficiency
    Inheritance: AD Classification: SUPPORTIVE Submitted by: Orphanet

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 7 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 6 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 6 uncertain in NM_005912.3
PP2
Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 29 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 3 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: -1.0099 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 0.30396 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to inherited obesity, obesity due to melanocortin 4 receptor deficiency.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.947
PP5
Variant 18-60371529-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr18-60371529-T-C is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 14324.
BS2
High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 13 AD gene. Variant has AC lower than other variant known as pathogenic in the gene, so the strength is limited to Supporting.
