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-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]

NPHP3-related Meckel-like syndrome Pathogenic:1
Oct 06, 2023
Johns Hopkins Genomics, Johns Hopkins University
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

NPHP3 c.2563C>T has been reported in the compound heterozygous state in at least one patient with nephronophthisis, and has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID 571559). This variant (rs201237799) is rare (<0.1%) in a large population dataset (gnomAD v2.1.1: 11/282752 total alleles; 0.004%; no homozygotes). This nonsense variant results in a premature stop codon in exon 18 of 27, likely leading to nonsense-mediated decay and lack of protein production. We consider c.2563C>T in NPHP3 to be pathogenic. -

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln855*) in the NPHP3 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in NPHP3 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18371931, 23559409). This variant is present in population databases (rs201237799, gnomAD 0.009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with infantile nephronophthisis (PMID: 19177160). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 571559). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
