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.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpNov 05, 2019Variant summary: COL4A3 c.4347_4353delCCGACAC (p.Arg1450ValfsX77) 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. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 249534 control chromosomes. c.4347_4353delCCGACAC has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with autosomal recessive Alport Syndrome (Ding_1995, Storey_2013). These data indicate that the variant is likely to 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 pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingNeuberg Centre For Genomic Medicine, NCGM-The frameshift variant c.4347_4353del (p.Arg1450ValfsTer77) in COL4A3 gene has been observed in individuals affected with Alport syndrome (Storey H et.al.,2013). This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Pathogenic .The p.Arg1450ValfsTer77 variant is novel (not in any individuals) in 1000 Genomes and allele frequency of 0.002004% is reported in gnomAD. This variant causes a frameshift starting with codon Arginine 1450, changes this amino acid to Valine residue, and creates a premature Stop codon at position 77 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Arg1450ValfsTer77. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic . -
