Genes affected
NPHS1 (HGNC:7908): (NPHS1 adhesion molecule, nephrin) This gene encodes a member of the immunoglobulin family of cell adhesion molecules that functions in the glomerular filtration barrier in the kidney. The gene is primarily expressed in renal tissues, and the protein is a type-1 transmembrane protein found at the slit diaphragm of glomerular podocytes. The slit diaphragm is thought to function as an ultrafilter to exclude albumin and other plasma macromolecules in the formation of urine. Mutations in this gene result in Finnish-type congenital nephrosis 1, characterized by severe proteinuria and loss of the slit diaphragm and foot processes.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

Finnish congenital nephrotic syndrome Pathogenic:9
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpOct 31, 2016Variant summary: The NPHS1 c.3325C>T (p.Arg1109X) variant, also known as Fin-minor, results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent NPHS1 protein due to nonsense mediated decay (NMD), which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. This variant was found in 25/121560 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0002057, which is lower than the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic NPHS1 variant (0.0033541). This variant is a known pathogenic variant with consistent genotype-phenotype data and the variant is mainly found in Finnish population (Kestila_1998, Lenkkeri_1999, Patrakka_2000, Koziell_2002, Machuca_2010, Sadowski_2015). In vitro functional assay shows that this variant abrogates the binding of the protein to podocin (Huber_2003). Taken together, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineFeb 16, 2024The p.Arg1109X variant in NPHS1 has been reported in the homozygous or compound heterozygous state in >10 individuals with nephrotic syndrome (Kestilä 1998 PMID: 9660941, Sinha 2020 PMID: 31655822, Zhu 2022 PMID: 35755072). It has also been identified in 0.10% (64/63990) of Finnish chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). However, this frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID 6867). This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 1109, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the NPHS1 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive nephrotic syndrome. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive nephrotic syndrome. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM3_Very strong, PVS1. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMyriad Genetics, Inc.Dec 11, 2019NM_004646.3(NPHS1):c.3325C>T(R1109*, aka Fin minor) is classified as pathogenic in the context of nephrotic syndrome, NPHS1-related.

Classification of NM_004646.3(NPHS1):c.3325C>T(R1109*, aka Fin minor) is based on the following criteria: The variant causes a premature termination codon that is expected to be targeted by nonsense-mediated mRNA decay and is reported in individuals with the relevant phenotype. Please note: this variant was assessed in the context of healthy population screening. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 28, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg1109*) in the NPHS1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in NPHS1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11317351, 11854170, 12039988). This variant is present in population databases (rs137853042, gnomAD 0.06%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with congenital nephrotic syndrome (PMID: 31655822). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6867). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
