Genes affected

NPHS1 (HGNC:7908): (NPHS1 adhesion molecule, nephrin) This gene encodes a member of the immunoglobulin family of cell adhesion molecules that functions in the glomerular filtration barrier in the kidney. The gene is primarily expressed in renal tissues, and the protein is a type-1 transmembrane protein found at the slit diaphragm of glomerular podocytes. The slit diaphragm is thought to function as an ultrafilter to exclude albumin and other plasma macromolecules in the formation of urine. Mutations in this gene result in Finnish-type congenital nephrosis 1, characterized by severe proteinuria and loss of the slit diaphragm and foot processes.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Feb 12, 2018	Variant summary: NPHS1 c.1307_1308dupAC (p.Val437ThrfsX2) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (e.g. c.2541delT (p.Lys848fsX57), c.3325C>T (p.Arg1109X), c.3478C>T (p.Arg1160X)). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.1e-06 in 246230 control chromosomes, which does not exceed the maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic mutation in NPHS1. The c.1307_1308dupAC variant has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Nephrotic Syndrome, Type 1 (Sadowski 2015), including one homozygous patient (Kestila 1998). 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. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation, and classified the variant as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Val437Thrfs*2) in the NPHS1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in NPHS1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11317351, 11854170, 12039988). This variant is present in population databases (rs386833878, gnomAD 0.0009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with congenital nephrotic syndrome (PMID: 9660941). This variant is also known as nt1306(ins2). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 56436). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
