Variant summary: NPHS2 c.538G>A (p.Val180Met) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Band 7 domain (IPR001107) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 245560 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.538G>A has been reported in the literature, either in homozygous state or in compound heterozygosity with another pathogenic variant, in multiple affected individuals (e.g. Sadowski 2015, Hinkes 2008, Weber 2004). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Though an in vitro study found that the variant V180M did not affect the targeting of the podocin protein to the plasma membrane (Roselli 2004), another study demonstrated that the variant podocin protein had drastically altered intracellular trafficking and subcellular localization (i.e. it was mostly found in inclusion bodies in the cytoplasm, and only a very small amount at the plasma membrane) and it also altered the trafficking and localization of wild-type nephrin in cotransfected cells (Nishibori 2004). Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.001%). In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product (REVEL: 0.69; 3Cnet: 0.60). Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000005368). The variant has been observed in multiple (>3) similarly affected unrelated individuals (PMID:25349199). The variant has been reported to be in trans with a pathogenic variant as either compound heterozygous or homozygous in at least 2 similarly affected unrelated individuals (PMID: 21125408, 25349199). In addition, It has been reported to co-segregate with the disease in at least one similarly affected relative/individual in the same family or similarly affected unrelated family (PMID:21125408). Therefore, this variant is classified as pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline.

This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 180 of the NPHS2 protein (p.Val180Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs74315347, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (PMID: 21125408, 25349199). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 5368). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt NPHS2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on NPHS2 function (PMID: 14675423, 15496146). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
