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.

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 300 of the COL4A3 protein (p.Gly300Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs772708743, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal dominant Alport syndrome (PMID: 25575550, 26809805; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 562427). 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. 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. -

The COL4A3 c.898G>A variant is classified as a LIKELY PATHOGENIC variant (PS4, PP3, PP4, PP5) This variant is a single nucleotide change from a guanine to an adenine at position 898 which is predicted to change the Glycine at position 300 in the protein to Arginine. The variant is in exon 16 and is located in collagen triple helix repeat protein domain of the COL4A3 gene. The variant has been reported in multiple individuals and families with Alport syndrome (PMID:2557550, 32647767). The prevalence of this variant in affected individuals is increasd compated with the prevalence in controls (PS4). The variant is in dbSNP (rs772708743) but is rare in population databases (gnomAD 5/249426, 0 homozygote). The variant has been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 562427) and HGMD (Accession No: CM151508) as Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic (PP5). Computational predictions support a deleterious effect on the gene or gene product (PP3). Patient's phenotype is highly specific for Alport syndrome with a single genetic etiology (PP4). -

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. 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 and benign familial haematuria MIM#141200) (OMIM). (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from glycine to arginine. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v2) <0.01 (5 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes).

(SP) 0601 - Variant is located in the well-established functional Gly-X-Y motif in the collagen triple helical domain (DECIPHER). (SP) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been identified in greater than ten unrelated individuals with Alport syndrome, thin basement membrane nephropathy, haematuria and proteinuria, and found to segregate within families. This variant has also been classified as a VUS (ClinVar, PMID: 32647767, PMID: 25575550, PMID: 26809805).

The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.002%). In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product (REVEL: 1.00; 3Cnet: 0.95). Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000562427). Therefore, this variant is classified as Likely pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

The c.898G>A (p.G300R) alteration is located in exon 16 (coding exon 16) of the COL4A3 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 898, causing the glycine (G) at amino acid position 300 to be replaced by an arginine (R). Based on data from gnomAD, the A allele has an overall frequency of 0.002% (5/249426) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.007% (1/15486) of African alleles. This variant has been identified in the homozygous state in individual(s) who met clinical criteria for COL4A3-related Alport syndrome (Sen, 2017). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. This alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as likely pathogenic. -

The COL4A3 c.898G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Gly300Arg. This variant has been reported in the heterozygous state in individuals with Alport syndrome (Mencarelli et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25575550; Weber et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26809805; Groopman et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 30586318. Table S7; Rao et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 31328266. Table S3). This variant has also been reported in individuals in a family with IgA nephropathy (Li et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32647767). Furthermore, the p.Gly300Arg variant affects a Gly residue of the conserved triple helical domain, where substitutions of the glycine are usually pathogenic (Mariyama et al. 1994. PubMed: 8083201; Savige et al. 2021. PubMed: 33854215; Gibson et al. 2022. PubMed: 35177655). This variant is reported in 0.0065% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
