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.

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingCenter for Pediatric Genomic Medicine, Children's Mercy Hospital and ClinicsMar 17, 2017- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 30, 2023This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1665 of the COL4A3 protein (p.Cys1665Tyr). This variant is present in population databases (rs376550779, gnomAD 0.008%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive Alport syndrome (PMID: 24052634; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 445315). 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 COL4A3 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. This variant disrupts the p.Cys1665 amino acid residue in COL4A3. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 24052634; Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Alport syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingVictorian Clinical Genetics Services, Murdoch Childrens Research InstituteOct 09, 2024Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as VUS-3A. Following criteria are met: 0103 - Dominant negative and loss of function are known mechanisms of disease in this gene and are associated with Alport syndrome, MONDO:0018965, COL4A3-related. Glycine changes that are part of a G-X-Y repeat in the triple helix of a collagen domain are known to have a dominant negative effect (PMID: 12028435). (I) 0108 - This gene is associated with both recessive (Alport syndrome 2 MIM#203780) and dominant disease (Alport syndrome 3 MIM#104200) (OMIM). (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from cysteine to tyrosine. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v2) <0.01 for a recessive condition (12 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 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 C-terminal tandem repeated domain in type 4 procollagen domain, and is involved in a disulphide bond (DECIPHER). (I) 0704 - Another missense variant comparable to the one identified in this case has limited previous evidence for pathogenicity. p.(Cys1665Ser) has been classified as likely pathogenic by a clinical laboratory in ClinVar who observed the variant in an individual with autosomal recessive Alport syndrome. (SP) 0802 - This variant has moderate previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been classified as likely pathogenic, pathogenic, or a VUS by clinical laboratories in Clinvar, one of whom observed the variant in an individual with autosomal recessive Alport syndrome. This variant has also been observed in two individuals with Alport syndrome in the literature, once as likely compound heterozygous and once in an individual who also had a COL4A4 missense variant (PMIDs: 24052634, 25575550). (SP) 1007 - No published functional evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1206 - This variant has been shown to be paternally inherited.
