Genes affected
COL4A4 (HGNC:2206): (collagen type IV alpha 4 chain) This gene encodes one of the six subunits of type IV collagen, the major structural component of basement membranes. This particular collagen IV subunit, however, is only found in a subset of basement membranes. 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. Mutations in this gene are associated with type II autosomal recessive Alport syndrome (hereditary glomerulonephropathy) and with familial benign hematuria (thin basement membrane disease). Two transcripts, differing only in their transcription start sites, have been identified for this gene and, as is common for collagen genes, multiple polyadenylation sites are found in the 3' UTR.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpMay 29, 2023For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 422613). This variant has been observed in individuals with clinical features of Alport syndrome (Invitae). This variant is present in population databases (rs778832152, gnomAD 0.0009%). This sequence change affects codon 401 of the COL4A4 mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the COL4A4 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJun 18, 2019Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); In-silico analysis, which includes splice predictors and evolutionary conservation, is inconclusive as to whether the variant alters gene splicing. In the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown.; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
