Genes affected
NPHS2 (HGNC:13394): (NPHS2 stomatin family member, podocin) This gene encodes a protein that plays a role in the regulation of glomerular permeability. Mutations in this gene cause steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2014]
AXDND1 (HGNC:26564): (axonemal dynein light chain domain containing 1)

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). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

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

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as VUS-3B. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with Nephrotic syndrome, type 2 (MIM#600995). (I) 0106 - This gene is associated with autosomal recessive disease. (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from glutamic acid to glutamine. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v2) <0.01 for a recessive condition (74 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0309 - An alternative amino acid change at the same position has been observed in gnomAD (v2) (1 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (I) 0501 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be damaging by multiple in silico tools or highly conserved with a major amino acid change. (SP) 0600 - Variant is located in the annotated SPFH domain (NCBI, Decipher). (I) 0705 - No comparable missense variants have previous evidence for pathogenicity. (I) 0808 - Previous reports of pathogenicity for this variant are conflicting. This variant has been reported as both VUS and likely pathgenic in ClinVar. It has also been found in heterozygous state in two controls and two individuals with steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (PMID: 20947785). (I) 0905 - No published segregation evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1007 - No published functional evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -

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

The best available variant frequency is uninformative because it is below the disease allele frequency. Predicted to have a damaging effect on the protein. Located in potentially critical domain of the protein. Moderate co-segregation with disease. However, available data are from a single family. -

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

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 264 of the NPHS2 protein (p.Glu264Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs369697947, gnomAD 0.08%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with childhood nephrotic syndrome (PMID: 35368817, 36239278; internal data). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 447883). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on NPHS2 protein function. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: NPHS2 c.790G>C (p.Glu264Gln) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Band 7 domain (IPR001107) of the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00029 in 251744 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in NPHS2 causing Nephrotic Syndrome, Type 2 (0.00029 vs 0.0018), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.790G>C has been reported in the literature in at-least three individual affected with Infantile nephrotic syndrome, including a pair of siblings (example, Bekheirnia_2020, BenMoshe_2022, Santin_2011, internal data). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 35368817, 36239278, 20947785). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 447883). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -
