Genes affected
COL4A2 (HGNC:2203): (collagen type IV alpha 2 chain) This gene encodes one of the six subunits of type IV collagen, the major structural component of basement membranes. The C-terminal portion of the protein, known as canstatin, is an inhibitor of angiogenesis and tumor growth. 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.

Variant summary: COL4A2 c.2185G>A (p.Gly729Arg) results in a non-conservative amino acid change to a highly conserved residue located in a Collagen triple helix repeat (IPR008160) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00017 in 200946 control chromosomes, allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.2185G>A has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with optic nerve hypoplasia and hypertelorism, as well as their unaffected mother (Dahl_2020). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Porencephaly 2. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Two submitters have provided clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, and both classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The COL4A2 c.2185G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Gly729Arg. This variant was reported in an individual with optic nerve hypoplasia, but it was inherited from a healthy parent (Dahl et al 2020. PubMed ID: 32040484). This variant is reported in 0.035% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. This variant results in a glycine substitution in the collagen triple helical region of the COL4A2 protein, and substitutions of this type are frequently pathogenic (Fidler et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29632050). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
