Genes affected
COL18A1 (HGNC:2195): (collagen type XVIII alpha 1 chain) This gene encodes the alpha chain of type XVIII collagen. This collagen is one of the multiplexins, extracellular matrix proteins that contain multiple triple-helix domains (collagenous domains) interrupted by non-collagenous domains. A long isoform of the protein has an N-terminal domain that is homologous to the extracellular part of frizzled receptors. Proteolytic processing at several endogenous cleavage sites in the C-terminal domain results in production of endostatin, a potent antiangiogenic protein that is able to inhibit angiogenesis and tumor growth. Mutations in this gene are associated with Knobloch syndrome. The main features of this syndrome involve retinal abnormalities, so type XVIII collagen may play an important role in retinal structure and in neural tube closure. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2014]

This variant, c.1343_1351dup, results in the insertion of 3 amino acid(s) of the COL18A1 protein (p.Pro448_Pro450dup), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (rs775305174, gnomAD 0.1%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Knobloch syndrome (PMID: 35253627). This variant is also known as ca.1883_1891dup (p.Pro628_Pro630dup). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 447113). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
