Genes affected

LEPR (HGNC:6554): (leptin receptor) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the gp130 family of cytokine receptors that are known to stimulate gene transcription via activation of cytosolic STAT proteins. This protein is a receptor for leptin (an adipocyte-specific hormone that regulates body weight), and is involved in the regulation of fat metabolism, as well as in a novel hematopoietic pathway that is required for normal lymphopoiesis. Mutations in this gene have been associated with obesity and pituitary dysfunction. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. It is noteworthy that this gene and LEPROT gene (GeneID:54741) share the same promoter and the first 2 exons, however, encode distinct proteins (PMID:9207021).[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2010]

LEPR Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):

• obesity due to leptin receptor gene deficiency

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -12 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.86).
• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.0202 (3071/152208) while in subpopulation NFE AF = 0.0308 (2095/67996). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0297. There are 36 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 1486 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
• BS2: High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 36 AR gene
