Genes affected

COL4A5 (HGNC:2207): (collagen type IV alpha 5 chain) This gene encodes one of the six subunits of type IV collagen, the major structural component of basement membranes. Mutations in this gene are associated with X-linked Alport syndrome, also known as hereditary nephritis. Like the other members of the type IV collagen gene family, this gene is organized in a head-to-head conformation with another type IV collagen gene so that each gene pair shares a common promoter. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2010]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 10 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chrX-108573619-G-T is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 1705311.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 538 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 138 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 2.4995 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: NaN (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to X-linked Alport syndrome, Alport syndrome.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.988
• PP5: Variant X-108573619-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chrX-108573619-G-A is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 1470047.

In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the triple helix domain of COL4A5. Glycine residues within the Gly-Xaa-Yaa repeats of the triple helix domain are required for the structure and stability of fibrillar collagens (PMID: 7695699, 8218237, 19344236). In COL4A5, missense variants at these glycine residues are significantly enriched in individuals with disease (PMID: 23720012, 27627812) compared to the general population (ExAC). 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 COL4A5 protein function. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Alport syndrome (Invitae). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 171 of the COL4A5 protein (p.Gly171Ser). -

Variant summary: COL4A5 c.511G>A (p.Gly171Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located within the triple-helical region (UniProt) of the encoded protein sequence. This missense variant disrupts a glycine residue at position 1 of a Gly-X-Y repeat in the collagenous domain of the collagen IV alpha 5 chain, however, the impact of this specific amino acid change does not allow definitive categorization (PMID: 33854215). Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 183318 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.511G>A has been reported in one individual affected with clinical features of Alport syndrome (Internal data). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (Internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1470047). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
