Genes affected

COL4A3 (HGNC:2204): (collagen type IV alpha 3 chain) Type IV collagen, the major structural component of basement membranes, is a multimeric protein composed of 3 alpha subunits. These subunits are encoded by 6 different genes, alpha 1 through alpha 6, each of which can form a triple helix structure with 2 other subunits to form type IV collagen. This gene encodes alpha 3. In the Goodpasture syndrome, autoantibodies bind to the collagen molecules in the basement membranes of alveoli and glomeruli. The epitopes that elicit these autoantibodies are localized largely to the non-collagenous C-terminal domain of the protein. A specific kinase phosphorylates amino acids in this same C-terminal region and the expression of this kinase is upregulated during pathogenesis. This gene is also linked to an autosomal recessive form of Alport syndrome. The mutations contributing to this syndrome are also located within the exons that encode this C-terminal region. 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.

Autosomal recessive Alport syndrome Pathogenic:2

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Counsyl	Nov 13, 2017	- -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	3billion	May 22, 2022	The variant is not observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset. Start-lost: reinitiation of translation may occur at a downstream alternate start codon but still result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function as there have been pathogenic variants reported upstream of the alterante start codon. The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic (ClinVar ID: VCV000555012). Therefore, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 555012). Disruption of the initiator codon has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive Alport syndrome (PMID: 12028435, 23297803, 24854265, 26809805). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects the initiator methionine of the COL4A3 mRNA. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 209. -

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0103 - Dominant negative and loss of function are known mechanisms of disease in this gene and are associated with COL4A3-related nephropathy. Glycine changes that are part of a G-X-Y repeat in the triple helix of a collagen domain are known to have a dominant negative effect (PMID: 12028435). (I) 0108 - This gene is associated with both recessive (Alport syndrome 2 MIM#203780) and dominant disease (Alport syndrome 3 MIM#104200 and benign familial hematuria MIM#141200) (OMIM). (I) 0206 - Variant is predicted to result in a loss of the canonical translation initiation codon (ATG). (SP) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v3) <0.01 for a recessive condition (1 heterozygote, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0702 - Other canonical translation initiation codon variants comparable to the one identified in this case have strong previous evidence for pathogenicity. Four variants affecting the canonical translation initiation codon have been observed in homozygous or compound heterozygous states in multiple individuals with autosomal recessive Alport syndrome (ClinVar, PMIDs: 12028435, 33772369, 23297803, 24854265). (SP) 0803 - This variant has limited previous evidence of pathogenicity in two unrelated individuals with zygosity unknown (ClinVar). (SP) 0905 - No published segregation evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1007 - No published functional evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -
