Genes affected
CLDN16 (HGNC:2037): (claudin 16) Tight junctions represent one mode of cell-to-cell adhesion in epithelial or endothelial cell sheets, forming continuous seals around cells and serving as a physical barrier to prevent solutes and water from passing freely through the paracellular space. These junctions are comprised of sets of continuous networking strands in the outwardly facing cytoplasmic leaflet, with complementary grooves in the inwardly facing extracytoplasmic leaflet. The protein encoded by this gene, a member of the claudin family, is an integral membrane protein and a component of tight junction strands. It is found primarily in the kidneys, specifically in the thick ascending limb of Henle, where it acts as either an intercellular pore or ion concentration sensor to regulate the paracellular resorption of magnesium ions. Defects in this gene are a cause of primary hypomagnesemia, which is characterized by massive renal magnesium wasting with hypomagnesemia and hypercalciuria, resulting in nephrocalcinosis and renal failure. This gene and the CLDN1 gene are clustered on chromosome 3q28. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010]

A homozygous missense variant, NM_006580.3(CLDN16):c.453G>T, has been identified in exon 3 of 5 of the CLDN16 gene. The variant is predicted to result in a minor amino acid change from leucine to phenylalanine at position 151 of the protein (NP_006571.1(CLDN16):p.(Leu151Phe)). The leucine residue at this position has moderate conservation (100 vertebrates, UCSC), and is located within the Claudin superfamily domain. In silico predictions for this variant are consistently pathogenic (PolyPhen, SIFT, CADD, MutationTaster). The variant is present in the gnomAD database at a frequency of 0.007% (19 heterozygotes; 0 homozygotes). More than 33 homozygous CLDN16 p.(Leu151Phe) cases with Familial hypomagnesaemia with hypercalciuria and nephrocalcinosis (FHHNC) have been reported to date (ClinVar, OMIM, Weber, S. et al. (2000), Weber, S. et al. (2001), Konrad, M. et al. (2008), Li, H. et al. (2017)). The mutation is likely due to a founder effect in the European population (Weber, S. et al. (2001)). The homozygous variant has been reported to segregate with disease in 25 unrelated non-consanguinous families (Konrad, M. et al. (2008)). In addition, functional assays have shown >40% residual function of CLDN16 in cells expressing this variant, which corresponded with a later disease onset and slower progression of renal failure, compared to complete loss of function variants (Konrad, M. et al. (2008)). Alternate changes at residue 151 to tryptophan and proline have also been reported as pathogenic (ClinVar, Weber, S. et al. (2000), Konrad, M. et al. (2008)). Based on the information available at the time of curation, this variant has been classified as PATHOGENIC. -

Across a selection of the available literature, the CLDN16 c.453G>T (p.Leu151Phe) missense variant has been identified in at least 28 individuals from more than 18 unrelated families with primary hypomagnesemia with hypercalciuria and nephrocalcinosis, including in a homozygous state in at least 18 individuals and in a compound heterozygous state in at least 10 individuals (Weber et al. 2000; Peco-Antić et al. 2010; Sikora et al. 2015). The variant was further identified in a heterozygous state in eight unaffected carrier parents (Weber et al. 2000). Two heterozygotes from one family had hypercalciuria but not primary hypomagnesemia (Tasic et al. 2005). The p.Leu151Phe variant was absent from 150 controls (Weber et al. 2000; Sikora et al. 2015) but is reported at a frequency of 0.00013 in the European (non-Finnish) population of the Genome Aggregation Database. Extended haplotype analysis suggests the p.Leu151Phe variant is likely a founder variant among patients originating from Germany or eastern European countries (Weber et al. 2000; Weber et al. 2001). Functional studies demonstrated that in transfected LLC-PK1 cells, the p.Leu151Phe variant led to partial function of the paracellin-1 protein compared to wild type (Hou et al. 2005). Based on the collective evidence, the p.Leu151Phe variant is classified as pathogenic for primary hypomagnesemia. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -

This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 151 of the CLDN16 protein (p.Leu151Phe). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with familial hypomagnesemia with hypercalciuria and nephrocalcinosis (PMID: 10878661). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 5934). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on CLDN16 protein function. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
