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.

Submissions by phenotype

Autosomal dominant Alport syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMolecular Genetics, Royal Melbourne HospitalMar 30, 2023This sequence change in COL4A4 is a nonsense variant predicted to cause a premature stop codon (p.(Gly469*)) in biologically-relevant-exon 21/48 leading to nonsense mediated decay in a gene in which loss-of-function is an established disease mechanism (PMID: 20301386). This variant is present in a single European (non-Finnish) individual in gnomAD v2.1 (1/67,998 alleles). This variant has been reported in at least two probands with a phenotype consistent with autosomal dominant Alport syndrome (PMID: 15954103; Royal Melbourne Hospital). Based on the classification scheme RMH Modified ACMG Guidelines v1.4.0, this variant is classified as PATHOGENIC. Following criteria are met: PVS1, PS4_Supporting, PM2_Supporting. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeMay 09, 2022This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gly469*) in the COL4A4 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in COL4A4 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21196518, 24854265, 25307543). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Alport syndrome (PMID: 15954103). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 553870). 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. -
