Severe early-onset obesity
Gene: SH2B1
SH2B1 is not associated with a phenotype on OMIM or Gene2Phenotype. PMID: 28663568 is a large study that looked at identifying rare and novel functional variants from 32 genes known to cause human obesity (SH2B1 is one of these genes) in large cohort of severely obese children. 4 different SH2B1 variants were identified in 6 families; however, the variants in some of these families the phenotype did not segregate with the variant which may be due to varying penetrance. As penetrance and environmental factors may contribute to the variability, this gene has been kept as an amber gene for now.Created: 15 Aug 2019, 2:02 p.m. | Last Modified: 15 Aug 2019, 2:02 p.m.

Variants in this GENE are reported as part of current diagnostic practice
Comment on list classification: Gene added by reviewer. Not associated with a disease/phenotype in OMIM or Gene2Phenotype. Associated with Severe early-onset obesity-insulin resistance syndrome due to SH2B1 deficiency in Orphanet. Several copy number variant losses in DECIPHER related to phenotypes which include obesity, however these deletions include multiple genes including SH2B1. PMID: 23160192 reports heterozygous loss of function variants in this gene in 5 unrelated patients with severe early-onset obesity, inherited from an obese/overweight parent. Several association studies reporting association between variants in this gene and obesity/BMI (including PMID: 26075635 which reports a common variant), and PMID 24971614 suggests that variants may have differences in penetrance, and environmemtal factors may contribute.Created: 19 Oct 2016, 7:09 a.m.

Publications for gene SH2B1 were changed from 26031769 - we performed a mutation screen for variants in the SH2B1 coding region in 581 obese children and adolescents and 433 healthy, lean individuals. Mutation analysis resulted in the identification of fifteen rare non-synonymous heterozygous variants.
