Nephronophthisis 1 Pathogenic:4
The frameshift duplication p.P186Tfs*2 in NPHP1 (NM_001128178.3) has been previously reported in affected patients(Caridi G et al). The variant has been submitted to ClinVar as Pathogenic. The p.P186Tfs*2 variant is novel (not in any individuals) in 1000 Genomes. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation caused a frameshift mutation. The frame shifted sequence continues 2 residues until a stop codon is reached. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Nephronophthisis Pathogenic:3
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Pro186Thrfs*2) in the NPHP1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in NPHP1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23559409). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with nephronophthisis or a related ciliopathy (PMID: 16762963, 18076122, 23559409). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is also known as c.548_555dupA (p.Glu183fs). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 283524). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
The p.Pro186ThrfsX2 variant in NPHP1 has been reported in 1 individual with neph ronopthisis in the compound heterozygous state with a full gene deletion of NPHP 1 (Caridi 2006), which is the most common pathogenic change involving this gene. It was absent from large population studies. This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein?s amino acid sequence beginning at posit ion 186 and leads to a premature termination codon 2 amino acids downstream. Thi s alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. In summ ary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal re cessive nephronopthisis based on absence from controls, predicted impact on prot ein, and a case observation. ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PVS1, PM2, PM3. -
This frameshifting variant, c.555dup, is predicted to create a premature stop codon 2 positions downstream p.(Pro186Thrfs*2), and may result in a null allele due to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This variant has not been reported in any population databases (i.e. ExAC, ESP or dbSNP). It has been previously reported in a patient with nephronophthisis, who was compound heterozygous with a deletion of the entire NPHP1 gene (Otto et al 2008 Hum Mutat 29:418-426). Other truncating variants downstream of this amino acid have also been reported in patients with nephronophthisis in the same paper. This variant is considered to be pathogenic according to the ACMG guidelines. -

Observed in homozygous state or with an additional NPHP1 variant in patients with nephronophthisis in the literature (PMID: 16762963, 23559409, 30773290); Frameshift variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 16762963, 23559409, 30773290, 31589614, 36990420, 31822006, 18076122) -
Inborn genetic diseases Pathogenic:1
The c.555dupA (p.P186Tfs*2) alteration, located in exon 6 (coding exon 6) of the NPHP1 gene, consists of a duplication of A at position 555, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon after 2 amino acids. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Based on data from gnomAD, the AA allele has an overall frequency of 0.001% (2/282044) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.004% (1/24920) of African alleles. This alteration has been reported in the homozygous and compound heterozygous states in multiple patients with NPHP1-related kidney disease including tubulointerstitial kidney disease, nephronophthisis, bilateral small kidneys, and end stage renal disease (Otto, 2008; Halbritter, 2013; Connaughton, 2019; Murray, 2020). Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -
