Variant summary: NPHS2 c.622G>A (p.Ala208Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Band 7 domain of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.2e-05 in 251248 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in NPHS2 causing Nephrotic Syndrome, Type 2 (5.2e-05 vs 0.0018), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.622G>A has been reported in the literature as a non-informative genotype (second allele not specified) in settings of NPHS2 specific gene sequencing and/or multigene panel testing among individuals affected with renal conditions such as steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS) and non-familial childhood-onset steroid-resistant FSGS patients, (example, Lipska_2013, Lowik_2008, Weber_2004, Yu_2005). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Nephrotic Syndrome, Type 2. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

This sequence change replaces alanine with threonine at codon 208 of the NPHS2 protein (p.Ala208Thr). The alanine residue is weakly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between alanine and threonine. This variant is present in population databases (rs200587413, ExAC 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (PMID: 15253708, 15769810, 23645318). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 550033). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The threonine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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. -
