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 testingInvitaeMay 23, 2023This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive Alport syndrome (PMID: 15954103, 18436078, 30881523). 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. This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg1516*) in the COL4A3 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in COL4A3 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 8956999, 24854265, 26809805, 27281700). This variant is present in population databases (rs759873621, gnomAD 0.0009%). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 552261). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Alport syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingSydney Genome Diagnostics, Children's Hospital WestmeadAug 28, 2018This patient is also heterozygous for a known pathogenic variant, c.4546C>T, in exon 49 of the COL4A3 gene. This variant creates a premature stop codon (p.Arg1516*), and may result in a null allele due to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This variant is considered to be pathogenic, and has been previously reported in patients with autosomal recessive Alport syndrome in the literature (Nagel et al 2005 Hum Mutat 26:60; Cook et al 2008 Am J Kidney Dis 51:e25-e28). This variant is considered to be pathogenic -
