Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP2PP3_Strong

The NM_000230.3(LEP):​c.298G>A​(p.Asp100Asn) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,820 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. D100Y) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Genes affected
LEP (HGNC:6553): (leptin) This gene encodes a protein that is secreted by white adipocytes into the circulation and plays a major role in the regulation of energy homeostasis. Circulating leptin binds to the leptin receptor in the brain, which activates downstream signaling pathways that inhibit feeding and promote energy expenditure. This protein also has several endocrine functions, and is involved in the regulation of immune and inflammatory responses, hematopoiesis, angiogenesis, reproduction, bone formation and wound healing. Mutations in this gene and its regulatory regions cause severe obesity and morbid obesity with hypogonadism in human patients. A mutation in this gene has also been linked to type 2 diabetes mellitus development. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]
LEP Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):
  • obesity due to congenital leptin deficiency

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 11 ACMG points.

PM1
In a chain Leptin (size 145) in uniprot entity LEP_HUMAN there are 6 pathogenic changes around while only 1 benign (86%) in NM_000230.3
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr7-128254557-G-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 162430.Status of the report is no_assertion_criteria_provided, 0 stars.
PP2
Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 6 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 1 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.90973 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 1.8247 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to obesity due to congenital leptin deficiency.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.985
