Genes affected

NPHP3 (HGNC:7907): (nephrocystin 3) This gene encodes a protein containing a coiled-coil (CC) domain, a tubulin-tyrosine ligase (TTL) domain, and a tetratrico peptide repeat (TPR) domain. The encoded protein interacts with nephrocystin, it is required for normal ciliary development, and it functions in renal tubular development. Mutations in this gene are associated with nephronophthisis type 3, and also with renal-hepatic-pancreatic dysplasia, and Meckel syndrome type 7. Naturally occurring read-through transcripts exist between this gene and the downstream ACAD11 (acyl-CoA dehydrogenase family, member 11) gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2011]

NPHP3 links:

NPHP3-ACAD11 (HGNC:48351): (NPHP3-ACAD11 readthrough (NMD candidate)) This locus represents naturally occurring read-through transcription between the neighboring NPHP3 (nephronophthisis 3, adolescent) and ACAD11 (acyl-CoA dehydrogenase family, member 11) genes on chromosome 3. The read-through transcript is a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD), and is thus unlikely to produce a protein product. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2011]

Variant summary: NPHP3 c.2918G>A (p.Arg973Gln) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.6e-05 in 251054 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.2918G>A has been observed in individuals affected with clinical features of NPHP3-related disorders (Bergmann_2008, Knig_2022). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 18371931, 36090483). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 2637). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -
