Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PVS1 PM2 PP5_Moderate

The NM_000092.5(COL4A4):​c.2906C>A​(p.Ser969*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. S969S) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Genes affected

COL4A4 (HGNC:2206): (collagen type IV alpha 4 chain) This gene encodes one of the six subunits of type IV collagen, the major structural component of basement membranes. This particular collagen IV subunit, however, is only found in a subset of basement membranes. Like the other members of the type IV collagen gene family, this gene is organized in a head-to-head conformation with another type IV collagen gene so that each gene pair shares a common promoter. Mutations in this gene are associated with type II autosomal recessive Alport syndrome (hereditary glomerulonephropathy) and with familial benign hematuria (thin basement membrane disease). Two transcripts, differing only in their transcription start sites, have been identified for this gene and, as is common for collagen genes, multiple polyadenylation sites are found in the 3' UTR.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser969*) in the COL4A4 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in COL4A4 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21196518, 24854265, 25307543). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with Alport syndrome (PMID: 24052634). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1070978). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
