Classic hereditary persistence of fetal hemoglobin (HPFH) is characterized by a substantial elevation of fetal hemoglobin (HbF) in adult red blood cells. There are no other phenotypic or hematologic manifestations. In healthy adults, fetal hemoglobin (HbF) is present at residual levels (less than 0.06% of total hemoglobin) with over 20-fold variation. Ten to fifteen percent of adults fall within the upper tail of the distribution +Genetic variations in KLF1 underlie the blood group-Lutheran inhibitor (In(Lu)) phenotype [MIM:111150]; also known as dominant Lu (a-b-) phenotype. In(Lu) is characterized phenotypically by the apparent absence of the Lu antigen (BCAM) on red blood cells during serologic tests: Lu(a-b-) +The Arg-971 polymorphism impairs the ability of insulin to stimulate glucose transport, glucose transporter translocation, and glycogen synthesis by affecting the PI3K/AKT1/GSK3 signaling pathway. The polymorphism at Arg-971 may contribute to the in vivo insulin resistance observed in carriers of this variant. Arg-971 could contribute to the risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases associated with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) by producing a cluster of insulin resistance-related metabolic abnormalities. In insulin-stimulated human endothelial cells from carriers of the Arg-971 polymorphism, genetic impairment of the IRS1/PI3K/PDPK1/AKT1 insulin signaling cascade results in impaired insulin-stimulated nitric oxide (NO) release and suggested that this may be a mechanism through which the Arg-971 polymorphism contributes to the genetic predisposition to develop endothelial dysfunction and cardiovascular disease. The Arg-971 polymorphism not only reduces phosphorylation of the substrate but allows IRS1 to act as an inhibitor of PI3K, producing global insulin resistance +Segregating pseudogene, locus showing both intact and pseudogene forms in the population.

MC1R*4 is found in recessive red animals +A polymorphism in the promoter region (5-HTT gene-linked polymorphic region, 5-HTTLPR) is located approximately 1 kb upstream of the transcription initiation site and is composed of 16 repeat elements. The polymorphism consists of a 44-bp insertion or deletion involving repeat elements 6 to 8. The short allele is associated with lower transcriptional efficiency of the promoter compared with the long allele. Over half of the Caucasian population has a short allele. Individuals with one or two copies of the short allele exhibit more depressive symptoms, diagnosable depression and suicidality in relation to stressful life events than individuals homozygous for the long allele +The 5-HTTLPR polymorphism may influence susceptibility to anxiety [MIM:607834] +The polymorphism Val-425 seems to be linked to a susceptibility to obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) [MIM:164230] +Genetic variations in SLC6A4 determine the genetic susceptibility to alcoholism [MIM:103780] +Polymorphisms that alter SLC6A4 expression or function may increase the susceptibility to autism +The sequence variants between males and females could be due to differences between individual animals, reflect gender differences or arise from technical problems (PubMed:9920943).

Allele KIR2DS5*002 is represented in this entry. Allele KIR2DS5*001 product is not expressed at the surface (PubMed:24269691, PubMed:18682925). In Europeans, KIR2DS5 is essentially monomorphic, with allele KIR2DS5*002 being predominant (PubMed:28685972). However, KIR2DS5 is highly polymorphic in Africans (PubMed:28685972). Alleles KIR2DS5*003, KIR2DS5*004, KIR2DS5*005, KIR2DS5*006, KIR2DS5*007 and KIR2DS5*008 have activating potential and recocognize C2 epitopes of HLA-C alleles (PubMed:28685972). Alleles KIR2DS5*002, KIR2DS5*009, KIR2DS5*010 and KIR2DS5*011 have activating potential but do not recocognize (or with very slight avidity) C2 epitopes of HLA-C alleles (PubMed:28685972). Allele KIR2DS5*006 protects pregnant women from pre-eclampsia (PubMed:28685972). Allele KIR2DS5*003 has increased glycosylation levels due to the variant Asn-144 instead of Ser-144, it also has increased cell surface expression. Alleles with variant Gly-179 instead of Arg-179 show lower levels of glycosylation (PubMed:24269691) +Genetic variations in the IRGM promoter determine Mycobacterium tuberculosis susceptibility [MIM:607948] (PubMed:19750224). People that are homozygote for -261C-T (rs9637876) variant, which is located within an Alu sequence in the promoter region, are associated with protection from M.tuberculosis (PubMed:19750224). In contrast, -261T-T allele is significantly associated with protection from pulmonary tuberculosis caused by M.tuberculosis, but not by M.africanum, a strain restricted to West Africa, or M.bovis (PubMed:19750224) +The OR gene possesses two alleles in melon, one associated with orange flesh (AC A0A0D3MU50) and the second being associated with either white or green flesh (this entry). A single SNP between the two alleles causes a change of an evolutionarily highly conserved Arg in position 108 to His (AC A0A0D3MU50). The Arg and His alleles are responsible for the non-orange and orange melon fruit phenotypes, respectively. This findings could serve as a novel genetic tool to enrich carotenoid content in transgenic crops +There are several alleles.

Variance in body mass index is a susceptibility factor for obesity +There at least 2 alleles for OR4E1. A non-functional allele results from a polymorphism at position 197 (dbSNP rs199890040), which leads to a frameshift, premature truncation of the coding region and hence pseudogenization. The presence of various combinations of functional (olfactory receptors) and non-functional (olfactory receptor segregating pseudogenes) alleles may underlie differences in olfactory sensitivity between individuals (hyperosmia, hyposmia or even anosmia) +Genetic variations in ZBTB38 define the stature quantitative trait locus 10 (STQTL10) [MIM:612221]. Adult height is an easily observable and highly heritable complex continuous trait. Because of this, it is a model trait for studying genetic influence on quantitative traits +Numerous size polymorphism are present in KRTAP4 gene family, which are mainly due to variations in the sequence encoding cysteine-rich repeat segments (PubMed:15955084).

The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele IGKV2D-26*01 +Genetic variations in PLS3 define the bone mineral density quantitative trait locus 18 (BMND18) [MIM:300910]. Variance in bone mineral density influences bone mass, contributes to size determination in the general population, and is a susceptibility factor for osteoporotic fractures +A one-base insertion, introducing a frameshift at position 22, results in inactivation of the gene in a majority of the population. That polymorphism is a good marker for predicting spontaneous hepatitis C virus (HCV) clearance and the response to treatment of chronic hepatitis C.

The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele IGHV4-38-2*02 +GCNT2 is involved in determining the blood group I system (Ii) [MIM:110800]. The i (fetal) and I (adult) antigens are determined by linear and branched poly-N-acetyllactosaminoglycans, respectively. A replacement during development of i by I is dependent on the appearance of a beta-1,6-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase, the I-branching enzyme. The expression of the blood group I antigen in erythrocytes is determined by isoform C of GCNT2 +The variant Ser-374 is unique to C57BL strains. It may confer the low iron phenotype observed in these strains +Genetic variations in HFE define the transferrin serum level quantitative trait locus 2 (TFQTL2) [MIM:614193]. Iron is essential for biochemical functions such as oxygen transport and oxidative phosphorylation. Excessive iron can cause iron-overload-related liver diseases, whereas iron deficiency can lead to anemia. Iron status can be assessed by measuring the levels of serum iron, serum transferrin, transferrin saturation with iron, and serum ferritin +Genetic variations in CASP8 are associated with reduced risk of lung cancer [MIM:211980] in a population of Han Chinese subjects. Genetic variations are also associated with decreased risk of cancer of various other forms including esophageal, gastric, colorectal, cervical, and breast, acting in an allele dose-dependent manner +Polymorphisms dbSNP:rs37972 and dbSNP:rs37973, located in GLCCI1 promoter region, are associated with a decreased response to glucorticoid treatment [MIM:614400] in asthma patients (PubMed:21991891), as well as in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients (PubMed:22187997). The mean increase in forced expiratory volume in 1 second in glucorticoid treated subjects who are homozygous for the mutant (G) rs37973 allele is only about one-third of that seen in similarly treated subjects who are homozygous for the wild-type allele (A) (PubMed:21991891). These polymorphisms affect GLCCI1 transcription level +The length of the poly-Gln region is variable in the population +Along with GYPA, GYPB is responsible for the MNS blood group system. The molecular basis of the S/s blood group antigen is a single variation in position 48; Thr-48 corresponds to s=MSN4 and Met-48 to S=MNS3 +AQP3 is responsible for the GIL blood group system. Isoform 2 is detected in GIL-negative individuals that lack functional AQP3 +Genetic variants in SLC24A5 define the skin/hair/eye pigmentation variation locus 4 (SHEP4) [MIM:113750]. Hair, eye and skin pigmentation are among the most visible examples of human phenotypic variation, with a broad normal range that is subject to substantial geographic stratification. In the case of skin, individuals tend to have lighter pigmentation with increasing distance from the equator. By contrast, the majority of variation in human eye and hair color is found among individuals of European ancestry, with most other human populations fixed for brown eyes and black hair +The Ala-111 allele predominates (93 to 100%) in African and East Asian populations. In contrast, the Thr-111 allele is nearly fixed (98.7 to 100%) in European populations, is associated with a substantial reduction in regional heterozygosity, and correlates with lighter skin pigmentation in admixed populations +An intronic G-to-A transition (rs2535913) has been associated with leukocyte telomere length. The minor A allele is associated with shorter telomeres and lower expression in lymphoblastoid cells and in sun-exposed skin (PubMed:25624462) +CYP4A11v seems to be a rare allelic variant of CYP4A11, it seems to be unstable and not to metabolize lauric acid +There are several alleles.

Each allele binds to a specific hotspot set (PubMed:26833727). Variations in the zinc finger C2H2 type domains are associated with significant differences in affinity towards DNA-binding motif (PubMed:26833727). The sequence shown is that of allele B +Carriers of the 22-Glu-Lys-23 allele are relatively more resistant to the effects of GCs with respect to the sensitivity of the adrenal feedback mechanism than non-carriers, resulting in a better metabolic health profile. Carriers have a better survival than non-carriers, as well as lower serum CRP levels. The 22-Glu-Lys-23 polymorphism is associated with a sex-specific, beneficial body composition at young-adult age, as well as greater muscle strength in males +Expression of alpha(1,3)-fucosyltransferase in plasma can vary among different populations. 9% of individuals on the isle of Java (Indonesia) do not express this enzyme. Ninety-five percent of plasma alpha(1,3)-fucosyltransferase-deficient individuals have Lewis negative phenotype on red cells, suggesting strong linkage disequilibrium between these two traits. Variations in FUT6 are responsible for plasma alpha(1,3)-fucosyltransferase deficiency [MIM:613852] +NZB mice express 10 to 100 fold more Ifi202 in spleen than B6 or NZW mice (PubMed:11567633). This could account for the high susceptibility of NZB mice to systemic lupus (PubMed:11567633) +The number of GQ repeats at position 179 is polymorphic +Genetic variation in NOS1AP influences the electrocardiographic QT interval [MIM:610141]. The QT interval is defined as the time from the beginning of the Q wave to the end of the T wave, representing the duration of ventricular electrical activity. The QT interval, a measure of cardiac repolarization, is a genetically influenced quantitative trait with considerable medical relevance: both high and low values are associated with increased risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality +C1-1162 and C1-1170 alleles are identical to the wild-type sequence.

The molecular basis of the K=KEL1/k=KEL2 blood group antigens is a single variation in position 193; Thr-193 corresponds to KEL2 and Met-193 to KEL1 (PubMed:7849312). The molecular basis of the Kpa=KEL3/Kpb=KEL4/Kpc=KEL21 blood group antigens is a single variation in position 281; Arg-281 corresponds to KEL4, Trp-281 to KEL3 and Gln-281 to KEL21 (PubMed:8669078).

The modern human variant Arg-317 is thought to lead to a greater neocortical neurogenesis compared to archaic human Lys-317, in particular in the frontal lobe. It is currently unknown if the presence of variant Lys-317 in modern humans is associated with a disease or has any effect on cognitive skills +Seven non deleterious alleles are known: CYP21A2*1A, CYP21A2*1B, CYP21A2*2, CYP21A2*3, CYP21A2*4, CYP21A2*5 and CYP21A2*6. The sequence shown corresponds to allele CYP21A2*1B. Deleterious alleles are mostly generated by recombinations between CYP21A2 and the pseudogene CYP21A1P through gene conversion. This process consists of recombination events that either delete CYP21A2 or transfer deleterious mutations from CYP21A1P to CYP21A2 +Three alleles are known: ADH1B*1 (ADH2*1) corresponding to variant beta-1, ADH1B*2 (ADH2*2) corresponding to variant beta-2, ADH1B*3 (ADH2*3) corresponding to variant beta-3.

Both nonsense variants would abolish catalytic activity. The sequence shown in this entry is that of the double variant p.[Ter16Ser;Ter168Gln]. The variant p.Ter16Ser may be extremely rare and is not reported in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD v3.1.2). The variant p.Ter168Gln is common in the human population with a frequency of 75%. Although the existence of the double variant p.[Ter16Ser;Ter168Gln] has not been proven in normal tissues, several lines of evidence support its existence in certain tumors or cell lines. It has been cloned from a colon tumor and has also been detected at the mRNA level in H4 neuroglioma cell line, as well as in the neuroblastoma cell line SH-SY5Y (PubMed:11397015, PubMed:19011241). In H4 and SH-SY5Y cells, its mRNA level can be up-regulated by ceramides. In H4 cells, the silencing of NAT8B double variant often leads to cell death, suggesting a function in these cells (PubMed:19011241).

Skin pigmentation is among the most visible examples of human phenotypic variation, with a broad normal range that is subject to substantial geographic stratification (PubMed:29025994, PubMed:30664655). In the case of skin, individuals tend to have lighter pigmentation with increasing distance from the equator (PubMed:29025994, PubMed:30664655).

The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele IGHV8-51-1*02 +Genetic variations in KLK1 are the cause of a decreased in urinary kallikrein activity [MIM:615953]. The His-77 mutation dramatically reduces the activity of the enzyme in the urine. There is a 50 to 60% reduction in urinary kallikrein activity in His-77 individuals, but renal and hormonal adaptation to dietary changes in sodium and potassium are unaffected. However, in studies of brachial artery function, His-77 individuals consistently exhibited an increase in wall shear stress and a paradoxical reduction in artery diameter and lumen compared to Arg-77 individuals. This partial genetic deficiency in kallikrein activity is associated with a form of arterial dysfunction involving inappropriate inward remodeling of the brachial artery despite a chronic increase in shear stress +The protein is absent in 14% of the human population +A genetic variation in NCR3 is associated with mild malaria susceptibility [MIM:609148] +There are several alleles.

Insertion of the additional arginine in variant Arg-22 ins creates an N-terminal basic cluster of four arginines, all of which appear to be important for the full functionality of the protein, including bactericidal and antifungal activities as well as binding to glycosaminoglycans, pspA, LPS, lysozyme and DNA +Genetic variations in CYP2D6 are the cause of poor drug metabolism CYP2D6-related [MIM:608902]. The CYP2D6 gene is highly polymorphic. CYP2D6 activity ranges widely within a population comprising ultrarapid (UM), extensive (EM), intermediate (IM) and poor (PM) metabolizer phenotypes. UM and PM are those most at risk for treatment failure or dose-dependent drug toxicity, respectively. Of the Caucasian populations of Europe and North America, 5%-10% are of the PM phenotype and are unable to metabolize the antihypersensitive drug debrisoquine and numerous other drugs. Different alleles are known, including CYP2D6*1 (PubMed:15768052), CYP2D6*2 (PubMed:25469868), CYP2D6*6B/6C (PubMed:7868129), CYP2D6*7 also known CYP2D6E (PubMed:7845481), CYP2D6*9 also known CYP2D6C (PubMed:1844820), CYP2D6*10 also known CYP2D6J (PubMed:8287064, PubMed:25469868), CYP2D6*12 (PubMed:8655150), CYP2D6*14 (PubMed:10064570), CYP2D6*17 also known CYP2D6Z (PubMed:8971426), CYP2D6*41B (PubMed:15768052), CYP2D6*45A (PubMed:15768052), CYP2D6*45B (PubMed:15768052), CYP2D6*46 (PubMed:15768052), CYP2D6*87 (PubMed:25469868), CYP2D6*88 (PubMed:25469868), CYP2D6*89 (PubMed:25469868), CYP2D6*90 (PubMed:25469868), CYP2D6*91 (PubMed:25469868), CYP2D6*93 (PubMed:25469868), C CYP2D6*94 (PubMed:25469868), CYP2D6*97 (PubMed:25469868) and CYP2D6*98 (PubMed:25469868). Isozymes CYP2D6.45 (Lys-155, Cys-296 and Thr-486) and CYP2D6.46 (His-26, Lys-155, Cys-296 and Thr-486) are functional (PubMed:15768052). The sequence shown is that of isozyme CYP2D6.1 corresponding to allele CYP2D6*1 +Nlrp1a gene is extremely polymorphic. 5 alleles have been described: 1 (AC D9I2F9), 2 (AC D9I2G3), 3 (AC D9I2H0), 4 (this entry) and 5 (AC D9I2G4) +Variability among CYP2B6 alleles may account for differential metabolism of endogenous steroids and endocannabinoids among individuals. For 16-alpha hydroxylation of testosterone, Vmax/Km values between alleles decrease in the following order: 2B6*1 > 2B6*6 > 2B6*9 > 2B7*4. For 16-beta hydroxylation of testosterone, 2B6*6 has the highest catalytic efficiency. For anandamide metabolism, 2B6*6 and 2B6*9 alleles show significantly lower rates of epoxidation (PubMed:21289075). Genetic variations in CYP2B6 are responsible for poor metabolism of efavirenz and, therefore, susceptibility to efavirenz toxicity in the central nervous system [MIM:614546]. Efavirenz is a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor frequently prescribed with 2 nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors as initial therapy for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Up to half of patients treated with efavirenz, experience side effects in the central nervous system, including dizziness, insomnia, impaired concentration, somnolence, and abnormal dreams. Severe depression, aggressive behavior, and paranoid or manic reactions may also occur, depending on efavirenz concentration in the plasma. Patients homozygous for 2B6*6 have significantly higher plasma efavirenz levels when compared to 2B6*6 heterozygous ones (PubMed:15622315, PubMed:15194512, PubMed:20639527) +Expressed at very low levels in most inbred strains with high levels detected only in strains BALB/c and DBA/2.

Leprosy is a chronic disease associated with depressed cellular (but not humoral) immunity, the bacterium requires a lower temperature than 37 degrees Celsius and thrives particularly in peripheral Schwann cells and macrophages. The Trp-677 polymorphism in the intracellular domain of TLR2 has a role in susceptibility to lepromatous leprosy. Wild-type TLR2 mediates CD14-enhanced Mycobacterium leprae-dependent activation of NFKB1, but TLR2 containing the Trp-677 polymorphism did not. The impaired function of the Trp-677 polymorphism provides a molecular mechanism for the poor cellular immune response associated with lepromatous leprosy +There are several alleles. The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele IGLV7-46*02 +The complement component C4 is the most polymorphic protein of the complement system. It is the product of 2 closely linked and highly homologous genes, C4A and C4B. Once polymorphic variation is discounted, the 2 isotypes differ by only 4 amino acids at positions 1120-1125: PCPVLD for C4A and LSPVIH for C4B. The 2 isotypes bear several antigenic determinants defining Chido/Rodgers blood group system [MIM:614374]. Rodgers determinants are generally associated with C4A allotypes, and Chido with C4B. Variations at these loci involve not only nucleotide polymorphisms, but also gene number and gene size. The second copy of C4B gene present in some individuals has been called C4B_2 by the HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee (HGNC). Some individuals may lack either C4A, or C4B gene. Partial deficiency of C4A or C4B is the most commonly inherited immune deficiency known in humans with a combined frequency over 31% in the normal Caucasian population (PubMed:11367523). Common copy-number variants of C4A and C4B affecting expression of complement component C4 in the brain have been associated with schizophrenia risk (PubMed:26814963) +There are several alleles. The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele TRDV1*01 +There seem to be two alleles of this protein +Variations in cort gene cortex directly affect wing pigmentation patterning and are the cause of the darkening of the wing in the f. carbonaria strain. This phenomenon, known as industrial melanism, is a classroom example of evolution: during industrial revolution, the common pale B.betularia strain (f. typica) was replaced by a previously unknown black strain (f. carbonaria), driven by the interaction between bird predation and coal pollution. The variation is caused by insertion of a transposable element into the first intron of cort gene, which occured around 1819, in the early years of the industrial revolution +The sequence varies across Plasmodium strains (PubMed:2000383). All variants share conserved N- and C-terminal regions; however, they belong to two allelic families, represented by 3D7 strain and FC27 strain sequences respectively, distinguished by tandem repeats and dimorphic flanking sequences within the central region of the protein (PubMed:2000383) +Strain SLAB is susceptible to insecticides while strain SR is resistant.

The sequence shown here is that of red jungle fowl (PubMed:15592404) +Variations in EGLN1 are associated with adaptation to high altitude (PubMed:20838600, PubMed:20466884, PubMed:24711448, PubMed:25129147). High-altitude hypoxia (reduced inspired oxygen tension due to decreased barometric pressure) exerts severe physiological stress on the human body and leads to an elevation of hematocrit levels and an increased number of erythrocytes (polycythemia) in non-adapted individuals. Genetic variations in EGLN1 contribute to adaptation to high altitute by maintaining hematocrit levels comparable to those for populations living at sea level and are present in two high-altitude regions where humans have lived for millennia, the Andean Altiplano and the Tibetan Plateau (PubMed:20838600, PubMed:20466884). Variants Glu-4 and Ser-127, which are frequently associated together and are present in the majority of Tibetan populations, participate in adaptation to high altitude (PubMed:24711448, PubMed:25129147). Molecular mechanisms explaining this adaptation are however unclear. According to a report, variants Glu-4 and Ser-127 lead to decreased interaction with PTGES3 and subsequent decrease of HIF alpha proteins degradation (PubMed:24711448). According to a second report, Glu-4 and Ser-127 haplotype enhances the catalytic activity under hypoxic conditions, promoting increased HIF alpha proteins degradation, thereby abrogating hypoxia-induced and HIF alpha-mediated augmentation of erythropoiesis and protecting Tibetans from polycythemia at high altitude (PubMed:25129147) +Allele B is shown, monogyne population from Argentina +Variation of PPARGC1B may contribute to the pathogenesis of obesity, with a widespread Ala-203 allele being a risk factor for the development of this common disorders +Sd-1 is the major semidwarfing allele extensively used in modern rice cultivars +There are two major electrophoretic isotypes.

The number of the CGG repeats normally varies in the population from 8 to 14. In contrast, individuals cytogenetically expressing the fragile site have at least 200 CGG repeats (PubMed:15203205). No distinct phenotype has been associated with expression of FRA10A. Nevertheless, some studies have proposed that this fragile site expression might be associated with intellectual disability, tumorigenesis, or neurological disorders. However, these associations can be attributed to ascertainment bias +The sequence shown is that of variant B, the most common variant +The most polymorphic of the mammalian genome. Polymorphic residues encode for alpha-1 and alpha-2 domains of the peptide-binding cleft, where they contribute to variations in peptide binding and TCR recognition among different alleles. The human population is estimated to have millions of HLA-B alleles. But only 17 common HLA-A alleles are considered core alleles, representing all functionally significant variation (polymorphism) in alpha-1 and alpha-2 domains. These are: B*07:02; B*08:01; B*13:02; B*15:01; B*18:01; B*27:05; B*35:01; B*37:01; B*38:01; B*40:01; B*44:02; B*45:01; B*51:01; B*54:01; B*57:01 and B*73:01. Among these, B*07:02; B*15:01; B*18:01; B*37:01; B*51:01; B*54:01; B*57:01 and B*73:01, were likely passed by introgression from archaic to modern humans. Functional alleles of more recent origin (non-core) were derived by recombination (PubMed:28650991). The sequence shown is that of B*07:02. The sequences of core alleles and common representative alleles of serologically distinct allele groups are described as variants of B*07:02 +C5 variants are responsible for poor response to eculizumab [MIM:615749]. Eculizumab is a monoclonal antibody highly effective in reducing intravascular hemolysis in patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria. It specifically binds to the terminal complement protein C5, inhibits its cleavage into C5a and C5b, and prevents the formations of the cytolytic complement pore (PubMed:24521109) +Position 59 is associated with platelet-specific alloantigen HPA-1 (ZW or PL(A)). HPA-1A/ZW(A)/PL(A1) has Leu-59 and HPA-1B/ZW(B)/PL(A2) has Pro-59. HPA-1A is involved in fetal-maternal alloimmune thromobocytopenia (FMAIT) as well as in neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (NAIT) +Position 169 is associated with platelet-specific alloantigen HPA-4 (PEN or YUK).

CA(+) is involved in NAIT +Position 662 is associated with platelet-specific alloantigen SR(A). SR(A)(-) has Arg-662 and SR(A)(+) has Cys-662 +Highly polymorphic. Polymorphic residues encode for the beta-1 domain of the peptide-binding cleft, where they contribute to variations in peptide binding and TCR recognition among different alleles. The sequence shown is that of DRB3*01:01. The sequences of common representative alleles of serologically distinct allele groups as defined in the catalog of common and well-documented HLA alleles, are described as variants of DRB3*01:01. The most frequent alleles in human population are DRB3*01:01 (DR52a), DRB3*02:02 (DR52b) and DRB3*03:01 (DR52c) (PubMed:23510415). Allele DRB3*01:01 belongs to an ancestral haplotype and is associated with autoimmune diseases that are linked to antigen presentation. It is found in more than 95% of the homozygous HPA-1B mothers that produce anti-HPA-1A antibodies, leading to neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (NAIT) (PubMed:19494351, PubMed:19535639). In the context of hematological malignancy and T cell transplantation, alleles DRB3*01:01 and DRB3*02:02 present minor histocompatibility antigens derived respectively from host PTK2B and MR1 proteins, contributing to T cell-mediated graft-versus-leukemia effect and complete remission (PubMed:19706888). Allele DRB3*03:01 plays an important role in the outcome of HLA-identical sex-mismatched organ transplantation.

Individuals with Jr(a-) blood group lack the Jr(a) antigen on their red blood cells. These individuals may have anti-Jr(a) antibodies in their serum, which can cause transfusion reactions or hemolytic disease of the fetus or newborn. Although the clinical significance of the Jr(a-) blood group has been controversial, severe fatal hemolytic disease of the newborn has been reported.

This polymorphism is associated with reduction of circulating vitamin B12 (PubMed:23754956, PubMed:24334609). The reduction of circulating vitamin B12 is caused by accumulation of citramalyl-CoA, an intermediate in the C5-dicarboxylate metabolic pathway that includes itaconate (PubMed:29056341).

The allele A sequence has a favorable effect on harness racing performance and on the diversification of the domestic horse, as the altered gait characteristics of a number of breeds apparently require this mutation. Homozygosity for the mutation is required, but not sufficient for pacing, as many Standardbred trotters and some Icelandic horses that are homozygous for this mutation do not pace. Allele A has been shown to be present in the following horse populations: Icelandic horses four-gaited and five-gaited, Kentucky mountain saddle horse, Missouri fox trotter, Paso fino, Peruvian paso, Rocky mountain horse, Tennessee walking horse, Standardbred trotter (Sweden, USA), Standardbred pacer (USA), and French trotter (France) +Variant Ala-164 is found in strain BALB/cJ which has a low intraocular pressure (PubMed:9588210, PubMed:9675094).

The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele TRBC2*03 +Responsible for the Cromer blood group system (CROM) [MIM:613793]. It consists of at least 8 high-incidence (Cr(a), Tc(a), Dr(a), Es(a), WES(b), UMC, IFC and GUTI) and three low-incidence (Tc(b), Tc(c) and WES(a)) antigens that reside on DAF. In the Cromer phenotypes Dr(a-) and Inab there is reduced or absent expression of DAF, respectively. In the case of the Dr(a-) phenotype, a single nucleotide substitution within exon 5 accounts for two changes: a simple amino acid substitution, Leu-199 that is the basis of the antigenic variation, and an alternative splicing event that underlies the decreased expression of DAF in this phenotype. The Inab phenotype is a very rare one in which the red blood cells lack all Cromer system antigens. The red blood cells of individuals with Inab phenotype have a deficiency of DAF, but these individuals are not known to have any associated hematologic or other abnormalities (PubMed:12675719) +The naturally occurring CB4856 strain isolated in Hawaii carries a deletion of str-217 and is resistant to N,N-diethyl-meta-toluamide (DEET) +There are several alleles.

These alleles define susceptibility to B.anthracis lethal toxin (LT). Alleles 2 (carried by A/J, C57BL/6J and I/LnJ), 3 (AKR/J, NOD/LtJ and SJL/J) or 4 (DBA/2J, P/J and SM/J) are not activated by LT.

It may define the bacteremia susceptibility locus 1 (BACTS1) [MIM:614382] (PubMed:17322885, PubMed:19602285). Indeed it has been reported that heterozygous carriage of p.Ser180Leu in populations from the U.K., Vietnam, and several African countries may confer protection against invasive pneumococcal disease, bacteremia, malaria, and tuberculosis (PubMed:17322885).

For instance, type I strain GT1 has 6 copies, type I strain RH has 4 copies, type II strains ME49 and PRU have 4 copies, type III strain VEG has 4 copies and type III strain CTG has only 2 copies (PubMed:26920761). The paralogs are classified into two groups, a and b and have probably arisen from the neofunctionalization of an ancestral MAF1 a gene (PubMed:26920761). They are characterized by the presence or absence of a repetitive stretch of 4 to 7 prolines followed by a serine (P(4:7)S), as well as differences in the amino acids surrounding the proline motif (PubMed:26920761). This motif is either completely missing (a and b0 paralogs) or repeated up to six times (b paralogs) (PubMed:26920761). cross the strains, transcript levels for the a paralogs are similar, however, in type II strain ME49, transcript levels for the b paralogs are low and no paralog MAF1 b1 protein is produced (PubMed:26920761, PubMed:24781109). Paralogs differ in their ability to mediate host mitochondrial association (HMA), but also in their ability to confer a selective advantage during infection in a mouse model (PubMed:26920761, PubMed:24781109, PubMed:29505111). Tachyzoites from type I and III strains associate with host mitochondria (HMA(+)), while tachyzoites from type II strains, such as ME49, do not associate with host mitochondria (HMA(-)) due to a lack of MAF1 b1 expression (PubMed:26920761, PubMed:24781109) +A polymorphism exists that is responsible for the nonagouti phenotype, characterized by a plain black coat on the back and belly. This is due to a 19-bp deletion resulting in a frameshift at position 36 and a premature stop codon at position 48 +Both strain WKAH (agouti) and strain BN (nonagouti) contain a substitution at the splice donor site of intron 3, resulting in a shorter isoform lacking exon 3 which causes reduced expression levels in strain WKAH and almost undetectable levels in strain BN +Genetic variants in AGXT2 are association with beta-aminoisobutyric aciduria (BAIBA)[MIM:210100]. Excretion of beta-aminoisobutyric acid in urine is a common, benign, metabolic trait +The number of repeats is highly polymorphic and varies among different strains +SLC14A1 is responsible for the Kidd blood group system (JK) [MIM:111000]. JK is defined by 2 alleles, JK*01 and JK*02 that give rise to Jk(a) and Jk(b) antigens respectively. The molecular basis of the Jk(a)/Jk(b) antigens is a single variation in position 280; Asp-280 corresponds to Jk(a) and Asn-280 to Jk(b). Some individuals carry silenced JK*01 and JK*02 alleles, designated JK*01N or JK*02N. They results in a Jk(null) phenotype associated with reduced urea permeability of red blood cells. Jk(null) is not associated with any obvious clinical syndrome except for a urine concentration defect +Three common alleles of ORM1 are known. ORM1*F1 has Gln-38/Val-174; ORM1*F2 has Gln-38/Met-174 and ORM1*S has Arg-38/Val-174. The sequence shown is that of allele ORM1*S +The Asp727Glu polymorphism is associated with Graves disease in a Russian population. The Glu727 allele and the heterozygous Asp727Glu genotype are related to higher risk of the disease. The Asp727Glu polymorphism significantly ameliorates G(s)alpha protein activation in the presence of the gain-of-function mutation Ala593Asn although it is functionally inert in the context of the wild-type TSHR +The most common allele, MUC7*6, contains a tandem repeat domain comprising 6 repeats (shown here) each composed of 23 amino acids. These repeats are very similar but not identical. In a large cohort of 375 individuals from a variety of ethnic backgrounds, three different alleles were detected, MUC7*6 being the most common, in all populations studied, followed by MUC7*5 (5 repeats), with frequency varying from 0.05 in Africans to 0.22 in East Asians. The MUC7*5 allele is less prevalent in patients with asthma than in controls, and seems to have a protective role in respiratory function. MUC7*8 (8 repeats), a novel rare allele, was identified in 1 Northern European individual +The number of repeats of 17 amino acids in the C-terminal is polymorphic and varies between 3 and 4.

However, this association with Alzheimer disease could not be confirmed in a number of studies performed in different populations (PubMed:19472444, PubMed:19070563, PubMed:19191331, PubMed:19191332, PubMed:19545933, PubMed:19655363, PubMed:21378601).

CIMT is a measure of atherosclerosis that is independently associated with traditional atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk factors and coronary atherosclerotic burden. 35 to 45% of the variability in multivariable-adjusted CIMT is explained by genetic factors +The murine poly-Gln region is very limited in comparison to human ATXN1 and is not polymorphic +Genetic variation in A4GALT is responsible for the P1PK system blood group phenotypes [MIM:111400]. Different combinations or absence of the P blood group system antigens define 5 different phenotypes: P1, P2, P1(k), P2(k), and p. Genetic variation in A4GALT determines the p phenotype, which is rare and does not express any antigens. It is also known as null phenotype; p individuals have antibodies against P, P1 and Pk antigens in their sera. These antibodies are clinically important because they can cause severe transfusion reactions and miscarriage (PubMed:10993874, PubMed:11896312). Genetic variation in A4GALT is also responsible for the NOR polyagglutination syndrome [MIM:111400]. Polyagglutination is the occurrence of red cell agglutination by virtually all human sera, but not by autologous serum or sera from newborns, creating a risk of complications during transfusions of NOR erythrocytes. It is caused by the unusual Gal(alpha1-4)GalNAc glycolipid epitope (PubMed:22965229) +Highly expressed in juveniles of strains BALB/C and C56BL/5 but expression is not detected in juveniles of strains CBA or C3H/He +Two variants of the protein, hemoglobin I and hemoglobin II seem to exist +Genetic variation in BCL11A underlies the fetal hemoglobin quantitative trait locus 5 [MIM:142335]. It is associated with quantitative variation in the production of F cells, that is erythrocytes containing measurable amounts of fetal hemoglobin (HbF). In healthy adults, HbF is present at residual levels (less than 0.6% of total hemoglobin) with over twenty-fold variation. Ten to fifteen percent of adults in the upper tail of the distribution have HbF levels between 0.8% and 5.0%, a condition referred to as heterocellular hereditary persistence of fetal hemoglobin (hHPFH). Although these HbF levels are modest in otherwise healthy individuals, interaction of hHPFH with beta thalassemia or sickle cell disease can increase HbF output in these individuals to levels that are clinically beneficial +The allele with Asn-245 has a significantly greater affinity for thyroxine than the His-245 allele found in Meishan boars.

This selective inactivation may be due to its interaction with a putative pathogen that could use GPR33 as a receptor for cell invasion +Variant Asp-40 does not show altered binding affinities for most opioid peptides and alkaloids tested, but it binds beta-endorphin, an endogenous opioid that activates the mu opioid receptor, approximately 3 times more tightly than the most common allelic form +The number of repeats is polymorphic and varies among different alleles. The sequence shown is that of allele L (long). There is an allele S (short) which contains 6 tandem repeats +There are several alleles.

A minor allele (rs107251) is associated with a decreased life span of 5.5 and 5.9 years when homozygous (TT); when compared to the major allele homozygous (CC) and heterozygous (CT) genotypes, respectively (PubMed:25541994) +Individuals with Thr-49 have an increased risk of prostate cancer (PubMed:10501358). The enzyme with Thr-49 has a higher in vitro V(max) than the Ala-49 enzyme (PubMed:10501358) +Intronic variations in MCM6 upstream from the LCT gene are associated with adult-type hypolactasia [MIM:223100] leading to lactose intolerance, or with lactase persistance. Lactose intolerance is a normal physiological phenomenon caused by developmental down-regulation of lactase activity during childhood or early adulthood. A non-coding variation in MCM6 affects the transcriptional regulation of the LCT gene resulting in down-regulation of lactase activity. However, the majority of Northern Europeans and some African populations have the ability to maintain lactase activity and digest lactose throughout life (lactase persistence) +The poly-Gln region of ATN1 is highly polymorphic (7 to 23 repeats) in the normal population and is expanded to about 49-75 repeats in DRPLA and HRS patients. Longer expansions result in earlier onset and more severe clinical manifestations of the disease +The repeat encompassing Pro-495 to Glu-507 may be polymorphic +The enzyme from cv.

The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele IGHV1-69*06 +An alanine stretch that varies from 12 to 19 residues is present. This polymorphisms can be used as a marker to study the role of FOXE1 in other cases of thyroid dysgenesis, especially in familial cases +A complex variation, consisting of an 81-bp deletion, including the last 4 bp of intron 6 and the first 77 bp of exon 7, followed by 2 insertions was identified. This variation was called Rex polymorphism or 'Re'. All sequenced Devon Rex cats, a breed characterized by curly hair phenotype, were homozygous for this variation and loss of homozygosity was associated with normal hair production (PubMed:20953787). A variation affecting the 5'-splice site at the junction of exon 4 and intron 4 was identified in 2 breeds, Sphynx and Kohana, that are characterized by a hairless phenotype. This variation occurred in the heterozygous or homozygous state in these breeds. It has been called hairless or hr allele and has been suggested of a cause of the hairless phenotype (PubMed:20953787) +A single nucleotide deletion at position Leu-229 in the gene coding for this protein is responsible for functional diversity thus producing a pseudogene. The deletion is more frequent in African-Americans than in non-Africans +Genetic variants in SERPINA7 influence the serum levels of thyroxine-binding globulin and define the thyroxine-binding globulin quantitative trait locus (TBGQTL) [MIM:300932]. Individuals with low or high serum levels of thyroxine-binding globulin show, respectively, reduced or elevated protein-bound iodine but are euthyroid and do not manifest major metabolic alterations (PubMed:1294376, PubMed:1515456, PubMed:1901689, PubMed:1906047, PubMed:2155256, PubMed:2501669). Two qualitative TBG variants occur in particular populations. TBG-A is found in 40% of Australian aborigines, it has reduced affinity for thyroxine and triiodothyroxine and increased susceptibility to inactivation by heat or acid (PubMed:2495303). TBG-S ('s' for slow shift on isoelectic focusing) is found in blacks, Eskimos, Melanesians, Polynesians and Indonesians, but not in Caucasians; TBG-S is slightly more thermolabile (PubMed:2115061) +The poly-Gln tract in AAK07474 may be polymorphic +There are at least 7 different APOBEC3H/APOBEC3Z3 haplotypes in the feline population. The displayed haplotype 1 is degraded in a feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) virion infectivity factor (vif)-dependent manner and is inefficient to block vif-proficient FIV replication. Haplotype 5 is resistant to vif-mediated degradation and is able to suppress vif-proficient FIV infectivity +Nlrp1b gene is extremely polymorphic. 5 alleles have been described in 18 inbred strains: 1 (this entry), 2 (AC A1Z198), 3 (AC Q2LKV5), 4 (AC Q2LKV2) and 5 (AC Q0GKD5). These alleles define susceptibility to B.anthracis lethal toxin (LT). Alleles 1 (carried by strains 129S1/SvImJ, BALB/cJ, C3H/HeJ, CBA/J, FVB/NJ, NON/ShiLtJ, NZO (NZO/HlLtJ) and SWR/J) and 5 (CAST/EiJ) confer macrophage susceptibility to LT. Strains with macrophages resistant to anthrax LT carry alleles 2 (A/J, C57BL/6J and I/LnJ), 3 (AKR/J, NOD/LtJ and SJL/J) or 4 (DBA/2J, P/J and SM/J). Sensitivity to LT leads to IL1B release, macrophage pyroptosis and neutrophil recruitment. This early inflammatory response confers increased resistance to infection by B. anthracis spores (PubMed:16429160, PubMed:19949100, PubMed:21170303). The sequence shown in this entry is that of allele 1 (PubMed:16429160) +Genetic variations in IL6R determine soluble IL6R serum levels [MIM:614689] +Genetic variations in IL6R define the IL6 serum level quantitative trait locus [MIM:614752] +The sequence shown in this entry differs from the translation of the reference genome assembly (GRCh38/hg38) due to a nonsense variant creating stop codon at position 106 in the reference genome. This sequence carries a selenocysteine-insertion element (SECIS)-like structure that during translation may recode an in-frame TGA-stop codon to a selenocysteine. However, there is no evidence that such a protein is produced in vivo. The sequence shown in this entry is that of variant p.Ter106Arg. This variant has a frequency of about 3% in the human population according to the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD v3.1.2) +There are several alleles.

The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele TRBV10-2*01 +Variations in SDAD1 may be a cause of susceptibility to seasonal allergic rhinitis (SAR). SAR is a common allergic disorder characterized by episodes of sneezing, rhinorrhea, and swelling of the nasal mucosa +The MAF1 locus encodes multiple tandemly duplicated paralogs that vary in expression, sequence and copy number across T.gondii strains (PubMed:26920761). For instance, type I strain GT1 has 6 copies, type I strain RH has 4 copies, type II strains ME49 and PRU have 4 copies, type III strain VEG has 4 copies and type III strain CTG has only 2 copies (PubMed:26920761). The paralogs are classified into two groups, a and b and have probably arisen from the neofunctionalization of an ancestral MAF1 a gene (PubMed:26920761). They are characterized by the presence or absence of a repetitive stretch of 4 to 7 prolines followed by a serine (P(4:7)S), as well as differences in the amino acids surrounding the proline motif (PubMed:26920761). This motif is either completely missing (a and b0 paralogs) or repeated up to six times (b paralogs) (PubMed:26920761). Across the strains, transcript levels for the a paralogs are similar, however, in type II strain ME49, transcript levels for the b paralogs are low and no paralog MAF1 b1 protein is produced (PubMed:26920761). Paralogs differ in their ability to mediate host mitochondrial association (HMA), but also in their ability to confer a selective advantage during infection in a mouse model (PubMed:26920761, PubMed:29505111). Tachyzoites from type I and III strains associate with host mitochondria (HMA(+)), while tachyzoites from type II strains, such as ME49, do not associate with host mitochondria (HMA(-)) due to a lack of MAF1 b1 expression (PubMed:26920761) +There are several alleles.

The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele TRAV26-2*01 +Strains C57BL/6J, C57BR/cdJ, C57L/J, C57BL/10J and C58/J carry the R187X allele, in which a polymorphism generates a premature stop codon, leading to either a truncated protein or an alternatively spliced isoform 3 +There are three common APOE alleles identified: APOE*2/APOE-epsilon2/E2, APOE*3/APOE-epsilon3/E3, and APOE*4/APOE-epsilon4/E4. The corresponding ApoE2, ApoE3 and ApoE4 isoforms differentially present Cys and Arg residues at positions 130 and 176. The most common allele in the human population is APOE*3 which sequence is the one displayed in that entry with a Cys at position 130 and an Arg at position 176. Common APOE variants influence lipoprotein metabolism in healthy individuals. Additional variants have been described and are described relative to the three common alleles. Allele APOE*4 is strongly associated with risk for severe COVID-19, increases susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2 infection in neurons and astrocytes (PubMed:33450186) +Four electrophoretic alleles are know to exist, they are designated A (shown here), B, C and D +There are several alleles.

FR(a+) has a Lys at position 480 and FR(a-) has a Glu +Genetic variations in SLC4A1 are involved in resistance to malaria [MIM:611162] +This sequence corresponds to the wild-type form. A truncated allele, allele A (AC J7FCF0), is linked to the ability to perform alternate gaits, which can be either pace or four-beat ambling gaits. The allele A sequence (AC J7FCF0) has a favorable effect on harness racing performance and on the diversification of the domestic horse, as the altered gait characteristics of a number of breeds apparently require this mutation. Homozygosity for the mutation is required, but not sufficient for pacing, as many Standardbred trotters and some Icelandic horses that are homozygous for this mutation do not pace. The allele A is not found in the following horse populations: Arabian horse, Gotland pony, North-Swedish draft horse, Przewalski's horse, Shetland pony, Swedish ardennes, Swedish warmblood and Thoroughbred +There are several alleles.

The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele IGHV1-69D*01 +Polymorphism at position 11 acts synergistically with different mutations in AGXT producing specific enzymatic phenotypes in HP1 patients. The combined presence of Leu-11 and Met-340 polymorphisms defines the minor AGXT allele, whereas their absence defines the major allele. The minor allele has frequencies of 20% in normal European and North American populations, and 50% in HP1 patients +Genetic variations in DRD2 may determine the genetic susceptibility to alcoholism [MIM:103780]. Genetic variations in DRD2 might be a protective factor against the development of withdrawal symptoms but might also be a risk factor in a highly burdened subgroup of alcoholics with a paternal and grandpaternal history of alcoholism and might contribute to suicide risk in alcoholics +There are several alleles.

A polymorphism gives rise to an upstream methionine which produces a longer protein of 123 residues associated with various cancers including diffuse-type gastric cancer and urinary bladder cancer +Polymorphism in ABCC11 is associated with variation in apocrine gland secretion [MIM:117800]. This determines different ear wax phenotypes, presence or absence of axillary odor, and variation in colostrum secretion. Characteristic of earwax and strength of axillary odor are most likely interconnected. Human earwax is a Mendelian trait consisting of wet and dry types. The wet earwax is brownish and sticky, whereas the dry type lacks cerumen. The wet cerumen phenotype is completely dominant. The dry type is seen frequently (80-95%) among East Asians, but uncommon (0-3%) in populations of European and African origins. Intermediate frequencies (30-50%) of the dry type are seen in populations of Southern Asia, the Pacific Islands, Central Asia and Asia Minor, as well as among the Native North American and Inuit of Asian ancestry. The allele with Arg-180 is responsible for the dry earwax phenotype and lack of axillary odor +There are several alleles.

It also contributes to susceptibility to Li-Fraumeni syndrome, in patients carrying a TP53 germline mutation +Polymorphic variations define TPMT activity levels that are variable among ethnic groups. 90% of Caucasians have high TPMT activity, 10% have intermediate activity, and 1 in 300 individuals has low activity (PubMed:10208641). These differences influence the clinical use and therapeutic efficacy of thiopurine drugs, generally used as immunosuppressants or cytotoxic drugs in conditions including leukemia, autoimmune disease and organ transplantation. Intermediate or low TPMT activity is associated with thiopurine intolerance and patients are at risk of toxicity after receiving standard doses of thiopurine drugs [MIM:610460] (PubMed:10751626, PubMed:15819814, PubMed:16220112, PubMed:16476125, PubMed:16789994, PubMed:7862671, PubMed:8561894, PubMed:8644731, PubMed:9246020, PubMed:9336428, PubMed:9711875, PubMed:9931345, PubMed:9931346). The most prevalent TPMT alleles associated with TPMT deficiency are TPMT*2 and TPMT*3A. The proteins encoded by TPMT*2 and TPMT*3A mutant are degraded more rapidly by an ATP-dependent proteasome-mediated pathway (PubMed:9177237, PubMed:8644731) +TPMT*3A is the most common allele in the Caucasians and American Caucasians; it is the only mutant allele found in the South West Asians; it is not found in the Chinese. TPMT*3C is common in African-Americans and is the only allele in Chinese, Japanese and Taiwanese individuals. This allele is found at a low frequency in the Caucasians. This suggests that TPMT*3C is the oldest mutation, with TPMT*3B being acquired later to form the TPMT*3A allele in the Caucasian and South West Asian populations. TPMT*2 appears to be a more recent allele, which has only been detected in Caucasians to date +The poly-Ala region seems to be polymorphic and the number of Ala varies between 4 and 6 +A common polymorphism arises from a variable number of hexanucleotide repeat sequence within the signal peptide region +Ly-17 alloantigenic system involves residues 116 and 161.

The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele TRAV9-1*01 +The sequence shown in this entry differs from the translation of the reference genome assembly (GRCh38/hg38) due to a nonsense variant creating stop codon at position 125 in the reference genome, giving rise to a truncated protein (Csp12-S) (PubMed:15129283, PubMed:16917906). The sequence shown in this entry is that of variant p.Ter125Arg. This variant gives rise to a full length protein (Csp12-L). It occurs in the human population at a frequence of about 4% according to the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD v3.1.2), with highest frequency observed in people of African descent (up to 60% in certain sub-Saharan populations) (PubMed:15129283, PubMed:16917906, PubMed:16532395). Csp12-L expression may increase the susceptibility to severe sepsis, and may result in higher mortality rates (up to 3-fold) once severe sepsis develop (PubMed:15129283) +Allele shown represents B1, B2 and B3, a monogyne population from USA and B1, a monogyne population from Argentina +There seems to be five variants of IFN-tau 3: A (shown here), B, C, D and E +Common alleles GBGT1*01N.01 and GBGT1*01N.02 do not synthesize Forssman glycolipid antigen (FORS1). A rare allele encoding an arginine to glutamine change at residue 296 is associated with the ability to synthesize Forssman antigen, which is expressed in erythrocytes and is inheritable, thus defining a new histo-blood group FORS, also known as Apae. This variation might have arised as a consequence of the selective pressure exerted by microorganisms. For instance, the uropathogenic E.coli expressing prsG adhesin only binds and agglutinates FORS1-expressing erythrocytes. Thus, FORS1-positive individuals might be more susceptible to certain pathogens +Strain C57BL/6 preferentially expresses isoform 1 while strains BALB/c and C3H/HeJ preferentially express isoform 2.

The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele TRBV10-3*01 +Length polymorphisms exist between different strains, most likely caused by length variations within the tandem repeats +In some individuals a nonsense mutation transforms either Ser-39 or Arg-140 into a premature stop codon. GPR33 has undergone independent pseudogenization in human, chimpanzee, orangutan and rat. This selective inactivation may be due to its interaction with a putative pathogen that could use GPR33 as a receptor for cell invasion +A stop codon at position Gln-55 in the gene coding for this protein is responsible for functional diversity thus producing a pseudogene. The stop codon is more frequent in African-Americans than in non-Africans +A homozygous transition at position 1 of intron 3 of APOA2 results in deficiency of apolipoprotein A-II, without significant influence either on lipid and lipoprotein profiles or on the occurrence of coronary artery disease [MIM:107670] +Segregating pseudogene, locus showing both intact and pseudogene forms in the population.

This polymorphism was not detected in almost 220 spotted cheetahs +The most frequent variant has a stop codon instead of Cys-15, giving rise to a truncated protein and is represented on the reference genome assembly (GRCh38/hg38). The variant Cys-15 is rare, except in some populations from Africa and non-Finnish Europa. The sequence shown is rare and is not represented on the reference genome assembly (GRCh38/hg38) +Genetic variations in UCP2 define the body mass index quantitative trait locus 4 (BMIQ4) [MIM:607447].

In humans, the OAS1 protein is expressed as two major forms designated p46 and p42. The longer p46 isoform is generated by alternative splicing to an exon downstream of the terminal exon used by the p42 isoform. Although all human genotypes contain the exon that completes the transcript encoding p46, an intronic SNP (rs10774671) determines OAS1 exon usage. Alleles with a G at this SNP (G alleles) specify expression of the p46 isoform and some p42, whereas alleles with A at this position predominantly encode the p42 isoform and cannot express the p46 isoform (PubMed:34581622). The p42 isoform, which is the most common isoform in humans (~61% of alleles), has no detectable anti-SARS-CoV-2 activity. The p46 isoform has anti-SARS-CoV-2 activity (PubMed:34581622) +A stop codon at position Arg-236 in the gene coding for this protein is responsible for functional diversity thus producing a pseudogene +Genetic variations in WWC1 define the memory quantitative trait locus (MEMRYQTL) [MIM:615602] +A single nucleotide deletion at position Met-205 in the gene coding for this protein is responsible for functional diversity thus producing a pseudogene +Was sequenced in many cultivars; Ag-0, Bl-1, Bus-1, Ci-0, Cvi-0, Dra-0, Edi-0, Hau-0, Hiroshima, In-0, Ita-0, Kas-1, Mr-0, Nok-4, Ost-0, Pog-0, Rou-0, Su-0, Ts-1 and Ws-0 +There are several alleles.

All variants share conserved N- and C-terminal regions; however, they belong to two allelic families, represented by 3D7 strain and FC27 strain sequences respectively, distinguished by tandem repeats and dimorphic flanking sequences within the central region of the protein (PubMed:1542312) +The complement component C4 is the most polymorphic protein of the complement system. It is the product of 2 closely linked and highly homologous genes, C4A and C4B. Once polymorphic variation is discounted, the 2 isotypes differ by only 4 amino acids at positions 1120-1125: PCPVLD for C4A and LSPVIH for C4B. The 2 isotypes bear several antigenic determinants defining Chido/Rodgers blood group system [MIM:614374]. Rodgers determinants are generally associated with C4A allotypes, and Chido with C4B. Variations at these loci involve not only nucleotide polymorphisms, but also gene number and gene size. Some individuals may lack either C4A, or C4B gene. Partial deficiency of C4A or C4B is the most commonly inherited immune deficiency known in humans with a combined frequency over 31% in the normal Caucasian population (PubMed:11367523). C4A6 allotype is deficient in hemolytic activity. Allotype C4A13 is infrequent. Common copy-number variants of C4A and C4B affecting expression of complement component C4 in the brain have been associated with schizophrenia risk (PubMed:26814963) +Nlrp1a gene is extremely polymorphic. 5 alleles have been described: 1 (AC D9I2F9), 2 (AC D9I2G3), 3 (this entry), 4 (AC D9I2G1) and 5 (AC D9I2G4) +CISH polymorphisms are involved in susceptibility to malaria [MIM:611162] +Genetic variations in CISH are involved in susceptibility to tuberculosis [MIM:607948] +Genetic variations in CISH are associated with susceptibility to bacterial invasion of the blood and define the bacteremia susceptibility locus 2 (BACTS2) [MIM:614383] +Variants Ala-113 and Gln-226 exhibit a reduced ability to smell C3HEX [MIM:615082]. When both variants are present in the same haplotype (allele 6M1-3*02), the response to C3HEX is abolished. African populations have a higher proportion of the C3HEX-nonresponsive haplotype than other populations. All haplotypes containing Gln-226 show low levels of surface expression +A variant of this gene has been observed in several 129 substrains, including 129/SvJ, 129S1/Sv, 129P3/J and 129S6/SvEvTac. This variant displays a 5-bp deletion encompassing the exon 7 splice acceptor junction. As a result, exon 7 is spliced out. Joining of exon 6 to exon 8 creates a frameshift after Pro-304 and a stop codon occurs after 5 aberrant amino acids. The mRNA may be the target of nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. It is detected only at low levels, while the corresponding protein is not detected at all in any of the 129 substrains tested +There are several alleles.

These alleles define susceptibility to B.anthracis lethal toxin (LT). Alleles 2 (carried by A/J, C57BL/6J and I/LnJ), 3 (AKR/J, NOD/LtJ and SJL/J) or 4 (DBA/2J, P/J and SM/J) are not activated by LT. Alleles 1 (carried by 129S1/SvImJ, BALB/cJ, C3H/HeJ, CBA/J, FVB/NJ, NON/ShiLtJ, NZO (NZO/HlLtJ) and SWR/J strains) and 5 (CAST/EiJ) confer macrophage susceptibility to LT. In susceptible strains, infection by Bacillus anthracis leads to IL1B release, neutrophil recruitment and macrophage pyroptosis. This early inflammatory response confers increased resistance to infection (PubMed:16429160). The sequence shown in this entry is that of allele 2 (PubMed:16429160) +There are several alleles. The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele IGLV3-22*01 +In strains 129/Sv, B10.RIII and C57BL/6, a polymorphism causes a frameshift and premature truncation of the protein, rendering it inactive. Strains BALB/c, C3H/He, DBA/1, DBA/2, MRL and NZB/B1N contain the normal protein while strain CD-1 is heterozygous for the mutation +The sequence shown in this entry differs from the translation of the reference genome assembly (GRCh38/hg38) due to a variant (called allele 'A') in the reference genome which abolishes the intron 1 donor splice site, leading to the loss of CD300H transcripts and consequently loss of protein. The variant shown in this entry (NM_001324073.1:c.61+1A>G, rs905709) restores the splicing of intron 1 and protein expression (PubMed:26221034).

It may be associated with susceptibility to Sjoegren syndrome, an autoimmune disorder characterized by abnormal dryness of the conjunctiva, cornea and mouth due to exocrine glands dysfunction +Alleles A, B and C are highly divergent forms of Klrb1b. Alleles A and B differ in their susceptibility to evasion of innate immunity by the rat cytomegalovirus (CMV). In contrast to allele B, allele A shows very low binding of a viral protein mimicking the Klrb1b ligand CLEC2D as well as low susceptibility to this MHC class I-independent viral evasion mechanism +Genetic variations in MC3R define the body mass index quantitative trait locus 9 (BMIQ9) [MIM:602025].

The ABO blood group system is the most important blood group system in blood transfusion. The sequence shown here is that of the A transferase. The B form differs by a few residues substitution. Residues 266 and 268 are important for specificity. The reference genome assembly (GRCh38/hg38) describes a non-functional O-type ABO allele. The O-type ABO allele results in a guanine deletion (NM_020469.2: c.286delG).

Alleles corresponding in size to a 4 (PER3.4) and 5 (PER3.5) repeats have been described. The sequence shown is that of allele PER3.5. In most populations around 10% of individuals are homozygous for the 5-repeat (PER3.5), whereas approximately 50% are homozygous for the 4-repeat (PER3.4). In some populations in Papua New Guinea the prevalence of the various genotypes appears to be reversed. These repeats and polymorphism are not present in non-primate mammals. Homozygosity for PER3.5 is more likely to show morning preference, whereas homozygosity for the PER3.4 associates with evening preferences.

A single SNP between the two alleles causes a change of an evolutionarily highly conserved Arg in position 108 (AC A0A0D3MU35) to His (His-108). The Arg and His alleles are responsible for the non-orange and orange melon fruit phenotypes, respectively. This findings could serve as a novel genetic tool to enrich carotenoid content in transgenic crops +There are several alleles. The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele IGLV4-69*01 +In human populations there are two major allelic forms, alpha-1 (1-1) with 83 residues and alpha-2 (2-2) with 142 residues. These alleles determine 3 possible genotypes, homozygous (1-1 or 2-2) and heterozygous (2-1), and 3 major phenotypes HP*1F/HP*1S and HP*2FS. The two main alleles of HP*1 are called HP*1F (fast) and HP*1S (slow). The alleles exhibit different oligomerization properties. In healthy males, but not in females, the Hp 2-2 phenotype is associated with higher serum iron, decreased antimicrobial and antioxidant capability, and less efficient clearance from the circulation, than Hp 1-1 and 2-1. The sequence displayed in this entry corresponds to allele alpha-2 (2-2) +The sequence shown in this entry differs from the translation of the reference genome assembly (GRCh38/hg38) due to a nonsense variant creating stop codon at position 140 in the reference genome. The sequence shown in this entry is that of variant p.Ter140Arg. This variant has a frequency of about 1% in the human population according to the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD v3.1.2). Polymorphic GPR33 gene inactivation has been observed in hominoids, including chimpanzees, as well as in some rodents, such as rat, but not in other mammals. A likely cause of GPR33 inactivation by selection is its interplay with an exogenous factor, such as a rodent-hominoidotopic pathogen +The sequence shown in this entry differs from the translation of the reference genome assembly (GRCh38/hg38) due to a nonsense variant creating stop codon at position 456 in the reference genome, leading to the synthesis of a truncated protein lacking enzymatic activity in vitro.

At least five antigens have been identified: Er(a), Er(b), Er(3), Er(4), and Er(5). The molecular basis of the Er(a)/Er(b) polymorphism is a single variation at position 2394; Gly-2394 corresponds to Er(a) and Ser-2394 to Er(b), while the Er(3) antigen is recognized by antibodies produced by Er(a-b-) individuals. The Er(4) and Er(5) antigens are defined by Glu-2407 and Arg-2245, respectively. Alloantibodies against Er(4) and Er(5) are associated with hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn +The sequence shown is that of the liver isozyme. The kidney isoform differs in 12 positions +The MAF1 locus encodes multiple tandemly duplicated paralogs that vary in expression, sequence and copy number across T.gondii strains (PubMed:26920761). For instance, type I strain GT1 has 6 copies, type I strain RH has 4 copies, type II strains ME49 and PRU have 4 copies, type III strain VEG has 4 copies and type III strain CTG has only 2 copies (PubMed:26920761). The paralogs are classified into two groups, a and b and have probably arisen from the neofunctionalization of an ancestral MAF1 a gene (PubMed:26920761). They are characterized by the presence or absence of a repetitive stretch of 4 to 7 prolines followed by a serine (P(4:7)S), as well as differences in the amino acids surrounding the proline motif (PubMed:26920761). This motif is either completely missing (a and b0 paralogs) or repeated up to six times (b paralogs) (PubMed:26920761). Across the strains, transcript levels for the a paralogs are similar, however, in type II strain ME49, transcript levels for the b paralogs are low and no paralog MAF1 b1 protein is produced (PubMed:26920761). Paralogs differ in their ability to mediate host mitochondrial association (HMA), but also in their ability to confer a selective advantage during infection in a mouse model (PubMed:26920761). Tachyzoites from type I and III strains associate with host mitochondria (HMA(+)), while tachyzoites from type II strains, such as ME49, do not associate with host mitochondria (HMA(-)) due to a lack of MAF1 b1 expression (PubMed:26920761) +The sequence shown is that of 6B4-1, 6B4-2 seems to differ in 7 positions and is probably an allele +The following alleles are known: E*01:01 and E*01:03 (PubMed:3131426, PubMed:10064069, PubMed:16702430, PubMed:16570139, PubMed:28127896). The frequency of E*01:01 and E*01:03 alleles in the population is about equal suggesting balanced selection in diverse populations. Evolutionary studies suggest that E*01:03 is the original allele (PubMed:12445303). Two other alleles has been described E*01:02 and E*01:04 (PubMed:3260916, PubMed:1977695). Allele E*01:02 was found to be identical to HLA E*01:01 (PubMed:3260916, PubMed:22665232). The existence of allele E*01:04 is uncertain as it could not be confirmed in further studies (PubMed:1977695, PubMed:12445303).

We cannot rule out that they may represent genetic variants +Genetic variations in MBL2 influence susceptibility to hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection [MIM:610424] +Genetic variations in MBL2 may influence susceptibility to severe COVID-19 disease caused by SARS-CoV-2 virus infection +Genetic variations in MBL2 are responsible for mannose-binding protein deficiency [MIM:614372]. This condition is defined as MBL2 protein level of less than 100 ng/ml, is present in about 5% of people of European descent and in about 10% of sub-Saharan Africans. Most MBL2-deficient adults appear healthy, but low levels of MBL2 are associated with increased risk of infection in toddlers, in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, and in organ-transplant patients receiving immunosuppressive drugs, particularly recipients of liver transplants. There is an association between low levels of MBL2 and a defect of opsonization which results in susceptibility to frequent and chronic infections (PubMed:1675710). Functional MBL2 deficiency may be associated with protection against tuberculosis caused by Mycobacterium africanum but not by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, as observed in studies on Ghanaian patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (PubMed:21695215) +The two common alleles; HOX1B*A and HOX1B*B have a frequency of 78.8% and 21.2% respectively +There are four common allelic UGT1A7 variants which exhibit significant differences in catalytic activity towards 3-, 7-, and 9-hydroxy-benzo(a)pyrene. UGT1A7*3 exhibits a 5.8-fold lower relative Vmax compared to UGT1A7*1, whereas UGT1A7*2 and UGT1A7*4 have a 2.6- and 2.8-fold lower relative Vmax than UGT1A7*1, respectively, suggesting that these mutations confer slow glucuronidation phenotype +Variations in CCR5 are associated with resistance or susceptibility to immunodeficiency virus type 1 (resistance or susceptibility to HIV-1) [MIM:609423]. Variations in CCR5 gene also influence the rate of progression to AIDS after infection +Variations in CCR5 are associated with susceptibility to West Nile virus (WNV) infection [MIM:610379] +Genetic variation in UGT1A1 defines the bilirubin serum levels quantitative trait locus 1 (BILIQTL1) [MIM:601816].

The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele IGHV3-72*01 +Genetic variants in MC1R define the skin/hair/eye pigmentation variation locus 2 (SHEP2) [MIM:266300]. Hair, eye and skin pigmentation are among the most visible examples of human phenotypic variation, with a broad normal range that is subject to substantial geographic stratification. In the case of skin, individuals tend to have lighter pigmentation with increasing distance from the equator, with type I skin being the most lightly pigmented and type IV the most dark pigmented. By contrast, the majority of variation in human eye and hair color is found among individuals of European ancestry, with most other human populations fixed for brown eyes and black hair. Partial loss-of-function mutations are associated with fair skin, poor tanning and increased skin cancer risk +MC1R variants associated with red hair and fair skin, determine female-specific increased analgesia from kappa-opioid receptor agonist [MIM:613098] +There are several alleles.

Variance in body mass index is a susceptibility factor for obesity +Nlrp1b gene is extremely polymorphic. 5 alleles have been described in 18 inbred strains: 1 (AC Q2LKW6), 2 (AC A1Z198), 3 (AC Q2LKV5), 4 (AC Q2LKV2) and 5 (this entry). These alleles define susceptibility to B.anthracis lethal toxin (LT). Alleles 1 (carried by strains 129S1/SvImJ, BALB/cJ, C3H/HeJ, CBA/J, FVB/NJ, NON/ShiLtJ, NZO (NZO/HlLtJ) and SWR/J) and 5 (CAST/EiJ) confer macrophage susceptibility to LT. Strains with macrophages resistant to anthrax LT carry alleles 2 (A/J, C57BL/6J and I/LnJ), 3 (AKR/J, NOD/LtJ and SJL/J) or 4 (DBA/2J, P/J and SM/J). Sensitivity to LT leads to IL1B release, macrophage pyroptosis and neutrophil recruitment. This early inflammatory response confers increased resistance to infection by B. anthracis spores (PubMed:16429160). The sequence shown in this entry is that of allele 5 (PubMed:16429160) +There are several alleles. The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele TRGV5*01 +The region encoding the tandem repeats is highly polymorphic. Divergence of the number of tandem repeats was seen in different cDNA libraries +Highly polymorphic. Polymorphic residues encode for alpha-1 and alpha-2 domains of the peptide-binding cleft, where they contribute to variations in peptide binding and TCR recognition among different alleles. The human population is estimated to have millions of HLA-A alleles. But only 11 common HLA-A alleles are considered core alleles, representing all functionally significant variation (polymorphism) in alpha-1 and alpha-2 domains. These are: A*01:01; A*02:01; A*02:05; A*03:01; A*11:01; A*24:02; A*26:01; A*29:02; A*30:01; A*74:01 and A*80:01. Among these, A*02:01; A*11:01; A*24:02 and A*26:01, were likely passed by introgression from archaic to modern humans. Functional alleles of more recent origin (non-core) were derived by recombination (PubMed:28650991). The sequence shown is that of A*03:01. The sequences of core alleles and common representative alleles of serologically distinct allele groups are described as variants of A*03:01 (PubMed:28650991).

The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele IGLV3-32*01 +There are several alleles. The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele TRDJ1*01 +The number of repeats is highly polymorphic and varies among different alleles. These repeats are very similar but not identical +Numerous size polymorphism are present in KRTAP4 gene family, which are mainly due to variations in the sequence encoding cysteine-rich repeat segments (PubMed:15955084). Allele shown is KAP4.5-v1 (PubMed:15955084) +Several alleles are found in the human population, contributing to interindividual variations in the therapeutic efficacy and toxicity of a myriad of drugs such as paclitaxel or amodiaquine. The allele shown here is CYP2C8*1 (PubMed:26427316). CYP2C8 genetic variations are associated with altered drug metabolism and adverse drug effects including acute rhabdomyolysis after cerivastatin use [MIM:618018] +There are several alleles. The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele IGHV3-49*04 +There are several alleles. The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele TRAV35*01 that is not represented on the reference genome assembly (GRCh38/hg38). The sequence of the reference genome assembly (GRCh38/hg38) is a pseudogene due to a stop codon polymorphism at position 50 +The variable number of tandem repeats (VNTR)-region in exon 11 is highly polymorphic, and VNTR number varies between 3 and 23. The most common allele contains 16 repeats (PubMed:12166660, PubMed:16369531, PubMed:19760265). Some alleles contain common single base insertions in the VNTR region that are predicted to lead to protein truncation and may be associated with an increased risk of exocrine pancreatic dysfunction in autoimmune diabetes (PubMed:16369531) +Variant Glu-76 (frequently reported as Glu-63) was thought to be associated with severe forms of schizophrenia. This does not seem to be the case +The sequence shown is that of isoform Eur m 2.0101 +The number of repeats of 16 amino acids in the third cytoplasmic loop is highly polymorphic and varies among different alleles. Alleles corresponding in size to a 2 (D4.2), 3 (D4.3), 4 (D4.4), 5 (D4.5), 6 (D4.6), 7 (D4.7) and 9 (D4.9) repeats have been described. The sequence shown is that of allele D4.4. The polymorphic repeat sequence has little influence on DRD4-binding profiles and might not be essential for G protein interaction +Individuals with a common stop codon polymorphism in position 392 are unable to mediate flagellin signaling. This polymorphism acts in a dominant fashion and is associated with susceptibility to pneumonia caused by Legionella pneumophila [MIM:608556]. It also provides protection against systemic lupus erythematosus +A nonsense TLR5 polymorphism, resulting in p.Arg392Ter, confers resistance to melioidosis [MIM:615557], an infection caused by the Gram-negative, flagellated soil saprophyte Burkholderia pseudomallei. Carriers of this hypofunctional TLR5 variant may generate impaired inflammatory responses during melioidosis infection that result in reduced organ failure and lower mortality +Variant Cys-109 is statistically significantly associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes +Many polymorphic variants of PGM1 exist. 8 different alleles are known: PGM1*1+, PGM1*1-, PGM1*2+, PGM1*2-, PGM1*3+, PGM1*3-, PGM1*7+ and PGM1*7-.

The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele TRBV9*02 +There are several alleles. The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele IGLV5-45*04 +There is a significant association between the variants Ala-3, Leu-251 and Thr-348 and a low expression of CD177 on neutrophils (PubMed:12623849, PubMed:14692971). Expression of CD177 on neutrophils is a trait determined by ratio of CD177/CD177P1 alleles (PubMed:27227454). The phenotype of CD177 null neutrophils is due to recombination between exon 7 of CD177 and the pseudogene CD177P1 through gene conversion, changing Lys-263 codon into stop codon (PubMed:27227454). The lack of CD177 expression affects 1-10 percent of the population placing them at risk for formation of anti-neutrophil antibodies that can cause transfusion-related acute lung injury and neonatal alloimmune neutropenia +There are several alleles. The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele IGKV6D-21*02 +There are several alleles. The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele TRDV3*01 +HCR*WWCC is associated with susceptibility to psoriasis. Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory dermatosis that affects approximately 2% of the population. It is a multifactorial disease characterized by red, scaly skin lesions that are usually found on the scalp, elbows, and knees, and may be associated with severe arthritis. The lesions are caused by hyperproliferative keratinocytes and infiltration of inflammatory cells into the dermis and epidermis. The usual age of onset of psoriasis is between 15 and 30 years, although it can present at any age. Association of HCR with psoriasis seem to be due to linkage disequilibrium with Cw*06:02 (PubMed:11348465). HCR is unlikely to be directly involved in psoriasis development +Genetic variations in ABCA1 define the high density lipoprotein cholesterol level quantitative trait locus 13 (HDLCQ13) [MIM:600046] +There are several alleles. The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele TRBV6-7*01 +Many different variants of ORM2 are known +The KIR genes are located in a segment of DNA on 19q13.4 in the leukocyte receptor complex that has undergone expansion and contraction over time, probably through unequal crossing-over. Thus, KIR haplotypes vary in the number and types of genes, although a few framework loci, such as the gene KIR3DL1, are present on all or nearly all haplotypes. KIR3DL1 and KIR3DS1 segregate as alleles of the locus KIR3DL1/3DS1 +Allelic variants in IL4RA are associated with a susceptibility to atopy, an immunological condition that can lead to clinical symptoms such as allergic rhinitis, sinusitis, asthma and eczema +Allelic variants in IL4RA are associated with cedar pollen sensitization. Individuals develop Japanese cedar pollinosis with increased exposure to cedar pollen. Japanese cedar pollinosis is a type I allergic disease with ocular and nasal symptoms that develop paroxysmally on contact with Japanese cedar pollen. These symptoms, which occur seasonally each year, are typical features of allergic rhinitis, such as sneezing, excessive nasal secretion, nasal congestion, and conjunctival itching +There are two size variants of KRT1, termed allele 1A and allele 1B with allelic frequencies of 0.61 and 0.39. Allele 1B lacks 7 residues compared to allele 1A +Allelic variations in LVRN are associated with tabby pattern variation in domestic cats +The MAF1 locus encodes multiple tandemly duplicated paralogs that vary in expression, sequence and copy number across T.gondii strains (PubMed:26920761). For instance, type I strain GT1 has 6 copies, type I strain RH has 4 copies, type II strains ME49 and PRU have 4 copies, type III strain VEG has 4 copies and type III strain CTG has only 2 copies (PubMed:26920761). The paralogs are classified into two groups, a and b and have probably arisen from the neofunctionalization of an ancestral MAF1 a gene (PubMed:26920761). They are characterized by the presence or absence of a repetitive stretch of 4 to 7 prolines followed by a serine (P(4:7)S), as well as differences in the amino acids surrounding the proline motif (PubMed:26920761). This motif is either completely missing (a and b0 paralogs) or repeated up to six times (b paralogs) (PubMed:26920761). cross the strains, transcript levels for the a paralogs are similar, however, in type II strain ME49, transcript levels for the b paralogs are low and no paralog MAF1 b1 protein is produced (PubMed:26920761). Paralogs differ in their ability to mediate host mitochondrial association (HMA), but also in their ability to confer a selective advantage during infection in a mouse model (PubMed:26920761). Tachyzoites from type I and III strains associate with host mitochondria (HMA(+)), while tachyzoites from type II strains, such as ME49, do not associate with host mitochondria (HMA(-)) due to a lack of MAF1 b1 expression (PubMed:26920761) +A mutation in position 63 is responsible for a short-tail trait in a bob-tailed dog (PubMed:11252170). The homozygous mutation is lethal (PubMed:11252170) +There are several alleles. The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele TRAV38-1*01 +Sheep has two allelic beta chains, A and B. The B allele sequence is shown +Different alleles occur in strains of Mus musculus (molossinus or domesticus). In particular the poly-Gln region in 167-177 is polymorphic with either 11, 12 or 13 Gln. The nature of this poly-Gln tract could affect the protein's function by disturbing its secondary structure, perhaps by preventing efficient contact with another protein +There are several alleles. The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele TRBV6-9*01 +There are two alleles of HTN3, HIS2(1) (shown here) and HIS2(2) that codes for the variant histatin-3-2 found primarily and in high frequencies in black populations +There are several alleles. The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele TRBV27*01 +Genetic variations in VDR may determine Mycobacterium tuberculosis susceptibility [MIM:607948] +Genetic variation in CYP2C19 is responsible for poor drug metabolism [MIM:609535]. Individuals can be characterized as either extensive metabolizers (EM) or poor metabolizers (PM). The PM phenotype is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, with the EM phenotype comprising both homozygous dominant and heterozygote genotypes. There are marked interracial differences in the frequency of this polymorphism. Poor metabolizers represent 2-5% of Caucasians, 13-23% of Asian populations, and as many as 38-79% of individuals of some of the islands of Polynesia and Micronesia. At least 38 different alleles are known including CYP2C19*1A, CYP2C19*1B, CYP2C19*1C, CYP2C19*2A (CYP2C19m1 or CYP2C19m1A), CYP2C19*2B (CYP2C19m1B), CYP2C19*2C (CYP2C19*21), CYP2C19*3A (CYP2C19m2), CYP2C19*3B (CYP2C19*20), CYP2C19*4 (CYP2C19m3), CYP2C19*5A (CYP2C19m4), CYP2C19*5B, CYP2C19*6, CYP2C19*7, CYP2C19*8, CYP2C19*9, CYP2C19*10, CYP2C19*11 CYP2C19*12, CYP2C19*13, CYP2C19*14 CYP2C19*15, CYP2C19*16, CYP2C19*18 and CYP2C19*19. Defective CYP2C19*2 and CYP2C19*3 alleles are characterized by a splice mutation and a stop codon, respectively, and account for most of the PM alleles. The sequence shown is that of allele CYP2C19*1A +There are several alleles. The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele TRGC2*06 +The CYP1A2*1F allele which is quite common (40 to 50%) is due to a substitution of a base in the non-coding region of the CYP1A2 gene and has the effect of decreasing the enzyme inducibility. Individuals who are homozygous for the CYP1A2*1F allele are 'slow' caffeine metabolizers. Thus for these individual increased intake of caffeine seems to be associated with a concomitant increase in the risk of non-fatal myocardial infraction (MI) +N-acetylation polymorphism is determined by a low or high NAT activity in liver and has been implicated in the action and toxicity of amine-containing drugs. Slow acetylation genotypes have been associated with significant lung cancer risk. Candidate risk factor for susceptibility to neural tube defects.

The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele IGHV3-30*18 +Genetic variations in ADGRG6 influences stature as a quantitative trait (STQTL) [MIM:606255]. Adult height is an easily observable and highly heritable complex continuous trait. Because of this, it is a model trait for studying genetic influence on quantitative traits +Genetic variations in ESR1 are correlated with bone mineral density (BMD). Low BMD is a risk factor for osteoporotic fracture. Osteoporosis is characterized by reduced bone mineral density, disruption of bone microarchitecture, and the alteration of the amount and variety of non-collagenous proteins in bone. Osteoporotic bones are more at risk of fracture +There are at least three alleles. The sequence shown is that of allele A +Segregating pseudogene, locus showing both intact and pseudogene forms in the population.

The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele TRAV8-3*01 +Variations in TAS2R38 are associated with the ability to taste phenylthiocarbamide (PTC tasting) [MIM:171200]; also called thiourea tasting. The ability to taste the substance PTC and a number of related substances is genetically controlled. Genetic studies have demonstrated complex inheritance for this trait. For some people (and some chimpanzees also), the chemical PTC tastes very bitter. For others, it is tasteless. Actually, substantial variation in taste sensitivity exists in human. Five haplotypes arising from three coding SNPs in the TAS2R38 gene are associated with distinct phenotypes of PTC taste sensitivity +Various different KIR3DL3 alleles are known: KIR3DL3*00101, KIR3DL3*00102, KIR3DL3*00103, KIR3DL3*00201, KIR3DL3*00202, KIR3DL3*00203, KIR3DL3*00204, KIR3DL3*00205, KIR3DL3*00206, KIR3DL3*00207, KIR3DL3*0030101 KIR3DL3*0030102, KIR3DL3*00401, KIR3DL3*00402, KIR3DL3*005, KIR3DL3*00601, KIR3DL3*00602, KIR3DL3*007, KIR3DL3*00801, KIR3DL3*00802, KIR3DL3*00901, KIR3DL3*00902, KIR3DL3*010, KIR3DL3*01101, KIR3DL3*01102, KIR3DL3*012, KIR3DL3*01301, KIR3DL3*01302, KIR3DL3*01303, KIR3DL3*01304, KIR3DL3*01305, KIR3DL3*01306, KIR3DL3*01307, KIR3DL3*01401, KIR3DL3*01402, KIR3DL3*01403, KIR3DL3*01404, KIR3DL3*01405, KIR3DL3*015 KIR3DL3*016, KIR3DL3*017, KIR3DL3*018, KIR3DL3*019, KIR3DL3*020, KIR3DL3*021, KIR3DL3*022, KIR3DL3*023, KIR3DL3*024, KIR3DL3*025, KIR3DL3*026, KIR3DL3*027, KIR3DL3*028, KIR3DL3*029, KIR3DL3*030 and KIR3DL3*031.

Val-127 has been selected for in response to the Kuru epidemic and confers resistance to prion disease by acting as a 'dominant negative' inhibitor of prion conversion (PubMed:26061765). Val-127 is not only itself resistant to conformational conversion, but also inhibits conversion of wild-type proteins. Confers protection against classical Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) and Kuru in the heterozygous state, but can be infected with variant CJD prions, resulting from exposure to bovine spongiform encephalopathy prions. Confers complete resistance to all prion strains when homozygous (PubMed:26061765). Always associated with M-129 variant (PubMed:26061765). Val-129 confers relative protection against acquired, sporadic and some inherited prion diseases in the heterozygous state, possibly by preventing homodimerization (PubMed:1439789).

Hair, eye and skin pigmentation are among the most visible examples of human phenotypic variation, with a broad normal range that is subject to substantial geographic stratification. In the case of skin, individuals tend to have lighter pigmentation with increasing distance from the equator. By contrast, the majority of variation in human eye and hair color is found among individuals of European ancestry, with most other human populations fixed for brown eyes and black hair +Genetic variations in IL10RB influence susceptibility to hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection [MIM:610424] +Variant present in the allele pot1(2), haplotypes 1 and 4, is associated with an increased resistance to potato virus Y (PVY) isolate N605 +Variant present in the allele pot-1 is associated with a functionnal mRNA capping activity and normal susceptibility to potyviruses (e.g. pepper mottle virus (PepMoV), potato virus Y (PVY) and tobacco etch virus (TEV)) +There are several alleles.

However, no etiologic link with the disease is characterized. Translocation t(2;19)(q11.2;q13.3) +Polymorphisms in the UGT1A6 gene define four common haplotypes: UGT1A6*1, UGT1A6*2, UGT1A6*3 and UGT1A6*4. Liver tissue samples that were homozygous for UGT1A6*2 exhibited a high rate of glucuronidation relative to tissues with other genotypes. Biochemical kinetic studies indicate that the UGT1A6*2 allozyme, expressed homozygously, had almost two-fold greater activity toward p-nitrophenol than UGT1A6*1 and when expressed heterozygously (UGT1A6*1/*2) it is associated with low enzyme activity. Common genetic variation in UGT1A6 confers functionally significant differences in biochemical phenotype.

In susceptible strains, infection by Bacillus anthracis leads to IL1B release, neutrophil recruitment and macrophage pyroptosis. This early inflammatory response confers increased resistance to infection (PubMed:16429160). The sequence shown in this entry is that of allele 3 (PubMed:16429160) +Involved in susceptibility to leprosy (LPRS2) [MIM:607572]. LPRS2 is associated with polymorphisms in the 5'-regulatory region shared by the PRKN gene +Disrupted by a t(2;7)(q37.1;q21.3) chromosomal translocation found in a patient suffering from Marfanoid habitus and skeletal anomalies. However, its absence does not seem to be the cause of the disease +Three common alleles are identified in Indian-origin rhesus macaques: 3A:01, 3A:02 and 3A:03. These alleles display similar IgG responses +Nlrp1a gene is extremely polymorphic. 5 alleles have been described: 1 (this entry), 2 (AC D9I2G3), 3 (AC D9I2H0), 4 (AC D9I2G1) and 5 (AC D9I2G4) +The sequence shown is that of 6B1-1, 6B1-2 seems to differ in 9 positions and is probably an allele +Genetic variations in TLR1 may influence susceptibility to or protection against contracting leprosy and define the leprosy susceptibility locus 5 [MIM:613223]. Ser-602 is a common allele in Caucasians. It is associated with impaired cell surface expression and receptor function resulting in protection against leprosy +The 2 alleles of TAPBP; TAPBP*01 (Tapasin*01) (shown here) and TAPBP*02 (Tapasin*02); are in linkage disequilibria with the HLA-DRB1 locus in a Japanese population +There are several alleles. The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele IGKV2-28*01 +There are two alleles, A and B. Allele A has Pro-124, Gln-172 and Val-192. Allele B has Leu-124, Glu-172 and Ala-192 +The three most commonly occurring GLB1 alleles have the designation L, I, and S for large, intermediate, and small proteins, respectively +At least three different alleles exist. The allele defined by Arg-6 and Glu-89 is associated with a risk of gastric cancer +CR1 contains a system of antigens called the Knops blood group system. Polymorphisms within this system are involved in malarial rosetting, a process associated with cerebral malaria, the major cause of mortality in Plasmodium falciparum malaria. Common Knops system antigens include McCoy (McC) and Sl(a)/Vil (Kn4, or Swain-Langley; Vil or Villien). Sl(a-) phenotype is more common in persons of African descent and may protect against fatal malaria +Other polymorphic forms of CR1 contain 23, 37 or 44 Sushi (CCP/SCR) domains instead of the 30 Sushi (CCP/SCR) domains. The most frequent alleles are the F allotype (shown here) and the S allotype (37 repeat Sushi domains). The gene frequencies of the F allotype and S allotype are 0.87 and 0.11 in Caucasians, 0.82 and 0.11 in African Americans, 0.89 and 0.11 in Mexicans +Genetic variations in CR1 resulting in CR1 deficiency are involved in protection against severe malaria [MIM:611162]. Parasitized red blood cells (RBCs) from children suffering from severe malaria often adhere to complement receptor 1 (CR1) on uninfected RBCs to form clumps of cells known as rosettes. CR1-deficient red blood cells show greatly reduced rosetting and CR1 deficiency occurs in healthy individuals from malaria-endemic regions +Three common alleles are known: allele APOA5*1, APOA5*2 and APOA5*3. The APOA5*2 haplotype, which consists of 3 non-coding SNPs, is present in approximately 16% of Caucasians and is associated with increased plasma triglyceride concentrations. APOA5*3 haplotype is defined by the rare Ser-19-Trp substitution. Together, the APOA5*2 and APOA5*3 haplotypes are found in 25 to 50% of African Americans, Hispanics, and Caucasians +A stop codon in the gene coding for this protein at position Gln-227 is responsible for functional diversity thus producing a pseudogene. Hypersensitivity towards isovaleric acid is seen predominantly in individuals who carry at least one copy of the intact allele +The strong polymorphisms present in cv. Di-17 and cv. Columbia are probably due to an unequal crossing-over between the highly related RPP8 and RPH8A genes present in cv. Landsberg erecta. Such variations probably modify the specificity of pathogen recognition +There are several alleles.

A promoter polymorphism in the CD209 gene is associated with protection from dengue fever, but not dengue hemorrhagic fever +There are several alleles. The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele TRBV6-5*01 +There are several alleles. The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele IGKV3D-7*01 +The exact length of RP1L1 is variable between individuals due to the presence of several length polymorphisms. The sequence shown here is that of allele RP1L1-1 and includes 3 repeats (from aa 1292-1342) with a length of 16 amino acids. The number of repeats is highly polymorphic and varies among different alleles, ranging from 3 to 8 +Genetic variation in PRKAG3 defines the skeletal muscle glycogen content and metabolism quantitative trait locus (SMGMQTL) [MIM:619030]. Muscle fibers from carriers of variant Trp-225 have approximately 90% more muscle glycogen content than controls and decreased levels of intramuscular triglyceride +The number of repeats in the mucin domain varies between 5 and 8 repeats +There are several alleles.

The sequence shown is that of Ren-1C +C57BL/6J and C57BR/cdJ mice specifically present an insertion of a type II early transposon in the opposite orientation into exon 6. This results in a strong reduction in the protein levels of isoform L +There are several alleles. The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele TRGV1*01 +There are several alleles. The sequence shown is that of IMGT allele IGHV3-30-3*03 +Genetic variants in KITLG define the skin/hair/eye pigmentation variation locus 7 (SHEP7) [MIM:611664]. Hair, eye and skin pigmentation are among the most visible examples of human phenotypic variation, with a broad normal range that is subject to substantial geographic stratification. In the case of skin, individuals tend to have lighter pigmentation with increasing distance from the equator. By contrast, the majority of variation in human eye and hair color is found among individuals of European ancestry, with most other human populations fixed for brown eyes and black hair +A non-coding SNP (dbSNP:rs12821256) has been shown to be associated with classic blond hair color in Europeans. This SNP is located 350 kb upstream from KITLG, in an enhancer specifically active in the hair follicle environment. It alters a LEF1 binding site, reducing LEF1 responsiveness in cultured keratinocytes. This SNP is not associated with eye pigmentation. It is most prevalent in Northern Europe (PubMed:24880339) +Highly polymorphic. Polymorphic residues encode for the beta-1 domain of the peptide-binding cleft, where they contribute to variations in peptide binding and TCR recognition among different alleles. The sequence shown is that of DRB1*15:01. The sequences of common representative alleles of serologically distinct allele groups as defined in the catalog of common and well-documented HLA alleles, are described as variants of DRB1*15:01 (PubMed:23510415). In the context of hematological malignancy and T cell transplantation, alleles DRB1*03:01 and DRB1*13:01 present minor histocompatibility antigens derived respectively from host MTHFD1 and LY75 proteins, contributing to T cell-mediated graft-versus-leukemia effect and complete remission (PubMed:19706888) +Genetic variation in ABCB1 may play a role in patients who do not respond to drug treatment +The poly-Gln region of TBP is highly polymorphic (25 to 42 repeats) in normal individuals and is expanded to about 47-63 repeats in spinocerebellar ataxia 17 (SCA17) patients +The sequence shown is that of isoform Lep d 2.0101 +The poly-Gln region seems to be polymorphic +There are at least three alleles; SD2H; SD1 and SD2L. The sequence of SD2H is shown here +Displays lower polymorphism than HLA-A and HLA-B. Polymorphic residues encode for alpha-1 and alpha-2 domains of the peptide-binding cleft, where they contribute to variations in peptide binding and TCR recognition among different alleles. The human population is estimated to have millions of HLA-C alleles. But only 14 common HLA-C alleles are considered core alleles, representing all functionally significant variation (polymorphism) in alpha-1 and alpha-2 domains. These are: C*01:02; C*02:02; C*03:02; C*04:01; C*05:01; C*06:02; C*07:01; C*07:04; C*08:01; C*12:02; C*14:02; C*15:02; C*16:01 and C*17:01. Among these, C*01:02; C*02:02; C*03:02; C*08:01; C*12:02; C*14:02 and C*15:02, were likely passed by introgression from archaic to modern humans. Functional alleles of more recent origin (non-core) were derived by recombination (PubMed:28650991). The sequence shown is that of C*07:02. The sequences of core alleles and common representative alleles of serologically distinct allele groups are described as variants of C*07:02 +There are several alleles.

The sequence shown is that of alpha-A +Three alleles have been identified in the Japanese population: Se1, Se2, and Sej +Common polymorphisms in FUT2 define the vitamin B12 plasma level quantitative trait locus 1 (B12QTL1) [MIM:612542]. Vitamin B12 found in meat and milk products is necessary for the formation of red blood cells, DNA synthesis during cell division, and maintenance of the myelin nerve sheath, among other functions. Deficiency in vitamin B12, clinically associated with pernicious anemia, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and neurodegenerative disorders, is often related to poor intestinal B12 absorption rather than direct dietary deficiency +Genetic variation in FUT2 results in the non-secretor phenotype which gives rise to non-functional FUT2, resulting in a lack of the H type-1 oligosaccharide ligand in secretions, and this prevents Norwalk virus binding contributing to resistance to Norwalk virus infection +Polymorphic NUDT15 variants define the poor metabolism of thiopurines 2 genetic locus (THPM2) [MIM:616903]. Thiopurines are used as immunosuppressants or cytotoxic drugs and are prescribed for a variety of clinical conditions including leukemia, autoimmune disease and organ transplantation. Patients with low NUDT15 activities have an increased risk for toxic effects after receiving standard doses of thiopurine drugs +Genetic variations in LRP5 define the bone mineral density quantitative trait locus 1 (BMND1) [MIM:601884]. Variance in bone mineral density influences bone mass and contributes to size determination in the general population +Several alleles exist depending on both the number of zinc finger C2H2 type domains and their identity (PubMed:22028627). Each allele binds to a specific hotspot set (PubMed:29478809). Both polymorphisms in the zinc finger C2H2 type domains and in DNA target sequence control recombination at hotspot (PubMed:22028627). The affinity of each allele for its DNA-binding site can vary histone methyltransferase activity (PubMed:29478809)
