Genes affected
LMX1B (HGNC:6654): (LIM homeobox transcription factor 1 beta) This gene encodes a member of LIM-homeodomain family of proteins containing two N-terminal zinc-binding LIM domains, 1 homeodomain, and a C-terminal glutamine-rich domain. It functions as a transcription factor, and is essential for the normal development of dorsal limb structures, the glomerular basement membrane, the anterior segment of the eye, and dopaminergic and serotonergic neurons. Mutations in this gene are associated with nail-patella syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects LMX1B function (PMID: 24042019, 28059119). This missense change has been observed in individuals with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (PMID: 23687361, 26560070, 28059119). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 246 of the LMX1B protein (p.Arg246Gln). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 498798). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt LMX1B protein function. -

Published functional studies demonstrate this variant partially impairs transcriptional activity, indicating haploinsufficiency (Isojima et al., 2014); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 26560070, 28059119, 31328266, 24042019, 32791958, 33725694, 32356190, 32774956, 23891399, 28844315, 29246420, 28780565, 27450397, 30295827, 30647093, 29127259, 23687361, 28204945) -

Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000498798, PS1_S). Functional studies provide strong evidence of the variant having a damaging effect on the gene or gene product (, PS3_S). A different missense change at the same codon has been reported to be associated with LMX1B related disorder (ClinVar ID: VCV000812901, PM5_P). In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product (REVEL: 0.908, 3CNET: 0.933, PP3_P). It is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.000000, PM2_M). The variant is located in a well-established functional domain or exonic hotspot, where pathogenic variants have frequently reported (PM1_M). Therefore, this variant is classified as pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

We identified the LMX1B mutation in a young man with nephrotic syndrome who had no clinical symptoms other than renal, and the mutation site was found to be pathogenic according to the ACMG guidelines as it corresponded to PS3 (Well-established in vitro or in vivo functional studies supportive of a damaging effect on the gene or gene product)+PS4_Supporting (The prevalence of the variant in affected individuals is significantly increased compared to the prevalence in controls)+PM2 (Absent from controls in Exome Sequencing Project, 1000 Genomes or ExAC)+PP1_Strong (Co-segregation with disease in multiple affected family members in a gene definitively known to cause the disease)+PP3 (Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect on the gene or gene product). -

This individual is heterozygous for a known pathogenic variant, c.737G>A p.(Arg246Gln) in the LMX1B gene. This variant is located in the homeobox domain of the LMX1B gene and occurs in a highly conserved amino acid residue. Originally described in a patient with nail patella syndrome (NPS) (OMIM# 602575); however, more recent reports have described this variant in multiple families with glomerular pathologies, including isolated FSGS, Nail-Patella-like Renal Disease (NPLRD) and Steroid resistant nephrotic syndrome (Boyer et al, J Am Soc Nephrol 24 (2013): 1216-1222; Hall et al, Sci Rep (2017) 7:39933). This variant is considered to be pathogenic according to the ACMG guidelines. -

Review Status: no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method: clinical testing

The LMX1B c.737G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg246Gln. This variant has been repeatedly reported to be causative for LMX1B-related glomerulopathy (see for example, reported as de novo at Supplementary Table 2 of Domingo-Gallego et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 33532864; Boyer et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23687361; Isojima et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24042019; Konomoto et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26560070; Hall et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28059119). This variant has not been reported in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change in LMX1B is predicted to replace arginine with glutamine at codon 246, p.(Arg246Gln). The arginine residue is highly conserved (100 vertebrates, UCSC), and is located in the homeobox domain. There is a small physicochemical difference between arginine and glutamine. This variant is absent from the population database gnomAD v2.1 and v3.1. This variant has been reported in probands/families with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis without extrarenal involvement or unspecified glomerulopathy, including at least one individual where the variant was identified as a de novo occurrence with unconfirmed parental relationships. It also segregates with kidney disease in multiple families (PMID: 23687361, 24042019, 28059119, 32791958, 32356190, 33532864). In vitro assays of LMX1B transcriptional activity in mammalian cell lines showed partially impaired transcriptional activity suggesting the variant may have dominant negative and haploinsufficiency effects (PMID: 24042019, 28059119). Multiple lines of computational evidence predict a deleterious effect for the missense substitution (5/6 algorithms). Based on the classification scheme RMH Modified ACMG Guidelines v1.5.1, this variant is classified as PATHOGENIC. Following criteria are met: PP1_Strong, PS4_Moderate, PM6, PS3_Supporting, PM2_Supporting, PP3. -
