Genes affected
COL4A3 (HGNC:2204): (collagen type IV alpha 3 chain) Type IV collagen, the major structural component of basement membranes, is a multimeric protein composed of 3 alpha subunits. These subunits are encoded by 6 different genes, alpha 1 through alpha 6, each of which can form a triple helix structure with 2 other subunits to form type IV collagen. This gene encodes alpha 3. In the Goodpasture syndrome, autoantibodies bind to the collagen molecules in the basement membranes of alveoli and glomeruli. The epitopes that elicit these autoantibodies are localized largely to the non-collagenous C-terminal domain of the protein. A specific kinase phosphorylates amino acids in this same C-terminal region and the expression of this kinase is upregulated during pathogenesis. This gene is also linked to an autosomal recessive form of Alport syndrome. The mutations contributing to this syndrome are also located within the exons that encode this C-terminal region. 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.

Variant summary: COL4A3 c.4510T>C (p.Phe1504Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Collagen IV, non-collagenous domain (IPR001442) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00025 in 249428 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in COL4A3 causing Alport Syndrome, Autosomal Recessive (0.00025 vs 0.0019), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.4510T>C has been reported in the literature as a non-informative genotype (second allele not specified) and a classification of VUS in at-least one individual within a cohort of Portuguese families with Alport Syndrome and Thin Basement Membrane Nephropathy analyzed for COL4A3 and COL4A4 variations (example, Nabais_2015). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Alport Syndrome, Autosomal Recessive. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Seven clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.Phe1504Leu variant in COL4A3 was identified in the heterozygous state in 1 Portuguese individual with Alport syndrome or thin basement membrane nephropath y (Sa 2015). It has also been identified in several populations by gnomAD, inclu ding 0.09% (9/10150) of Ashkenazi Jewish chromosomes and 0.02% (30/126604) of Eu ropean chromosomes (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that this variant may impact the protein , though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. I n summary, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP Crit eria applied: PP3, BS1_Supporting. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -
