Genes affected
ACTN4 (HGNC:166): (actinin alpha 4) Alpha actinins belong to the spectrin gene superfamily which represents a diverse group of cytoskeletal proteins, including the alpha and beta spectrins and dystrophins. Alpha actinin is an actin-binding protein with multiple roles in different cell types. In nonmuscle cells, the cytoskeletal isoform is found along microfilament bundles and adherens-type junctions, where it is involved in binding actin to the membrane. In contrast, skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle isoforms are localized to the Z-disc and analogous dense bodies, where they help anchor the myofibrillar actin filaments. This gene encodes a nonmuscle, alpha actinin isoform which is concentrated in the cytoplasm, and thought to be involved in metastatic processes. Mutations in this gene have been associated with focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

This sequence change replaces lysine with glutamic acid at codon 255 of the ACTN4 protein (p.Lys255Glu). The lysine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between lysine and glutamic acid. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (PMID: 10700177). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as p.Lys228Glu in the literature. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 5420). This variant has been reported to affect ACTN4 protein function (PMID: 10700177, 22351778). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
