Description
This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 242 of the MC1R protein (p.Thr242Ile). This variant is present in population databases (rs200051702, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of MC1R-related conditions (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 470710). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on MC1R protein function. 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.
