The conditions may involve multi-systemic manifestations, including sequelae affecting the renal and hepatic systems, and surveillance and avoidance of certain medications (eg, nephrotoxic agents) may be beneficial; Renal transplant has been described, though nephrotic syndrome may recur post-transplantation

Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the NPHP1 gene is commonly pathogenic or not. These statistics are base on transcript: NM_001128178.3. Only rare variants are included in the table.

In the table, we include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, Mane Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equals 1. Click the count to view the source variants.

Warning: slight differences between displayed counts and the number of variants in ClinVar may occur, primarily due to (1) the application of a different transcript and/or consequence by our variant effect predictor or (2) differences in clinical significance: we classify Benign/Likely benign variants as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic variants as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Together with BCAR1 it may play a role in the control of epithelial cell polarity. Involved in the organization of apical junctions in kidney cells together with NPHP4 and RPGRIP1L/NPHP8 (By similarity). Does not seem to be strictly required for ciliogenesis (By similarity). Seems to help to recruit PTK2B/PYK2 to cell matrix adhesions, thereby initiating phosphorylation of PTK2B/PYK2 and PTK2B/PYK2-dependent signaling. May play a role in the regulation of intraflagellar transport (IFT) during cilia assembly. Required for normal retina development. In connecting photoreceptor cilia influences the movement of some IFT proteins such as IFT88 and WDR19. Involved in spermatogenesis (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Nephronophthisis 1 (NPHP1) [MIM:256100]: An autosomal recessive inherited disease characterized by anemia, polyuria, polydipsia, isosthenuria and death in uremia. Symmetrical destruction of the kidneys involving both tubules and glomeruli occurs. The underlying pathology is a chronic tubulo-interstitial nephropathy with characteristic tubular basement membrane thickening and medullary cyst formation. Associations with extrarenal symptoms, especially ocular lesions, are frequent. The age at death ranges from about 4 to 15 years. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10839884}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Senior-Loken syndrome 1 (SLSN1) [MIM:266900]: A renal- retinal disorder characterized by progressive wasting of the filtering unit of the kidney (nephronophthisis), with or without medullary cystic renal disease, and progressive eye disease. Typically this disorder becomes apparent during the first year of life. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9856524}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Joubert syndrome 4 (JBTS4) [MIM:609583]: A disorder presenting with cerebellar ataxia, oculomotor apraxia, hypotonia, neonatal breathing abnormalities and psychomotor delay. Neuroradiologically, it is characterized by cerebellar vermian hypoplasia/aplasia, thickened and reoriented superior cerebellar peduncles, and an abnormally large interpeduncular fossa, giving the appearance of a molar tooth on transaxial slices (molar tooth sign). Additional variable features include retinal dystrophy and renal disease. Joubert syndrome type 4 is a phenotypically mild form. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15138899, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26477546}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
