Invitae | RCV001377123 | SCV001574363 | likely pathogenic | not provided | 2020-03-27 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Glycine residues within the Gly-Xaa-Yaa repeats of the triple helix domain are required for the structure and stability of fibrillar collagens (PMID: 7695699, 8218237, 19344236). In COL4A5, missense variants at these glycine residues are significantly enriched in individuals with disease (PMID: 23720012, 27627812) compared to the general population (ExAC). In summary, this variant is a novel missense change affecting a residue that is known to be critical for normal protein structure, stability and function. This type of missense change is also highly enriched in affected individuals and expected to be pathogenic. However, without additional functional and/or genetic data, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with Alport syndrome (PMID: 22921432). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 587107). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces glycine with arginine at codon 1342 of the COL4A5 protein (p.Gly1342Arg). The glycine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between glycine and arginine. |
