Genes affected

UMOD (HGNC:12559): (uromodulin) The protein encoded by this gene is the most abundant protein in mammalian urine under physiological conditions. Its excretion in urine follows proteolytic cleavage of the ectodomain of its glycosyl phosphatidylinosital-anchored counterpart that is situated on the luminal cell surface of the loop of Henle. This protein may act as a constitutive inhibitor of calcium crystallization in renal fluids. Excretion of this protein in urine may provide defense against urinary tract infections caused by uropathogenic bacteria. Defects in this gene are associated with the renal disorders medullary cystic kidney disease-2 (MCKD2), glomerulocystic kidney disease with hyperuricemia and isosthenuria (GCKDHI), and familial juvenile hyperuricemic nephropathy (FJHN). Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 17 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 3 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 4 uncertain in NM_003361.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 69 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 14 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.99836 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 0.48416 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to autosomal dominant medullary cystic kidney disease with or without hyperuricemia, familial juvenile hyperuricemic nephropathy type 1, glomerulocystic kidney disease with hyperuricemia and isosthenuria, autosomal dominant medullary cystic kidney disease with hyperuricemia.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.978
• PP5: Variant 16-20348247-A-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr16-20348247-A-C is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 446167.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

The affected residue locates within the cysteine‑rich 2 domain and is immediately preceded by a highly conserved cysteine residue. Various bioinformatics tools such as mutation taster, PolyPhen and Sorting Intolerant from Tolerant also predicted it to be pathogenic. This amino acid residue is conserved across other animal species. Based on the above evidence, we concluded that this novel variant is very likely the causal pathogenic mutation. -
