Genes affected
CD46 (HGNC:6953): (CD46 molecule) The protein encoded by this gene is a type I membrane protein and is a regulatory part of the complement system. The encoded protein has cofactor activity for inactivation of complement components C3b and C4b by serum factor I, which protects the host cell from damage by complement. In addition, the encoded protein can act as a receptor for the Edmonston strain of measles virus, human herpesvirus-6, and type IV pili of pathogenic Neisseria. Finally, the protein encoded by this gene may be involved in the fusion of the spermatozoa with the oocyte during fertilization. Mutations at this locus have been associated with susceptibility to hemolytic uremic syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingJohns Hopkins Genomics, Johns Hopkins UniversityApr 27, 2020This CD46 variant (rs769742294) is rare (<0.1%) in a large population dataset (gnomAD: 13/249756 total alleles; 0.005205%; no homozygotes). It has been previously reported in individuals with aHUS with incomplete penetrance. This variant destroys a canonical splice donor site and is predicted to affect normal exon 2 splicing. A single submitter in ClinVar classifies this variant as likely pathogenic. We consider it to be pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 12, 2024This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 2 of the CD46 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in CD46 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16621965, 23431077). This variant is present in population databases (rs769742294, gnomAD 0.01%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with hemolytic uremic syndrome (PMID: 16762990, 23431077, 26307634, 26559391). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 505831). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site alters CD46 gene expression (PMID: 24944786, 26559391). 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. -
Atypical hemolytic-uremic syndrome Pathogenic:2
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineJul 28, 2017The c.286+2T>G (NM_002389.4 c.286+2T>G) variant in CD46 has been previously repo rted in at least 4 heterozygous, 1 compound heterozygous, and 3 homozygous indiv iduals with atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome, and segregated with disease in o ne homozygous sibling (Fremeaux-Bacci 2006, Saunders 2007, Maga 2010, Bresin 201 3, Alberti 2013, Brocklebank 2014, Bhatia 2015, Phillips 2016, Sheerin 2016, and Besbas 2017, and Bhatia 2015). This variant occurs in the invariant region (+/ - 1,2) of the splice consensus sequence and has been demonstrated to impact spli cing (Fremeaux-Bacci 2006). It has been identified in 0.01% (11/111554) of Europ ean chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomAD.broadi nstitute.org; dbSNP rs769742294). Available data suggests that this variant is i nherited in an autosomal dominant manner with incomplete penetrance, and milder phenotype in heterozygotes and more severe, earlier-onset presentation in homozy gotes. In summary, the c.286+2T>C variant is likely pathogenic for atypical hem olytic uremic syndrome based upon observations in affected individuals and predi cted impact on the protein, though it may show reduced penetrance. -
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingSydney Genome Diagnostics, Children's Hospital WestmeadOct 24, 2018This patient is heterozygous for a known pathogenic variant, c.286+2T>G, in the CD46 gene. In silico analysis (using Alamut visual v2.6) predicts this variant to abolish the consensus splice donor site at c.286, resulting in the skipping of exon 2. This variant in the heterozygote form has been reported in a patient with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) who developed atypical haemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) following renal transplantation from her asymptomatic mother who was also heterozygote for the variant (Alberti et al 2013 Am J Transplant 13:2201-2206). This variant, in both heterozygote and homozygote form, has been reported in patients who developed aHUS after a trigger, such as S. flexneri diarrhoeal illness or dengue shock syndrome (Brocklebank et al 2014 Clin Kidney J 7:286-288; Bhatia et al 2015 Pediatr Nephrol Aug 26). However, the latter paper also reported this variant, in both heterozygote and homozygote form, in asymptomatic individuals who were 50 to 100% deficient of CD46. -
Familial Atypical Hemolytic-Uremic Syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpFeb 07, 2024Variant summary: CD46 c.286+2T>G is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant abolishes a 5' splicing donor site. At least one publication reports experimental evidence that this variant affects mRNA splicing, resulting in the deletion of 144 bp in exon 2 (Fremeaux-Bacchi_2006). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.2e-05 in 249756 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.286+2T>G has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Genetic Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome, both in the homozygous state and in heterozygous individuals with incomplete penetrance (Fremeaux-Bacchi_2006, Khandelwal_CD46_CKJ_2018). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 16762990, 29644059). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 505831). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
