1 case reported of biallelic variants in KAT2B and steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome. 2nd case with a similar phenotype but an additional variant ADD which may contribute to the patients phenotype. Drosophila KAT2B mutant replicates the renal phenotype.

PMID: 39366742 - Niel et al 2024 - 2 siblings originating from Montenegro who presented in teenage years with steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome and had bilateral cataracts in early childhood. WES identified a homozygous variant in KAT2B in both patients (NM_003884.5:c.700dup, NP_003875.3:p.(Ser234LysfsTer13)), leading to a 1-base insertion, a frameshift and a premature stop codon in exon 6/18. The variant was not described in gnomAD, and was hetrozygous in both parents, who are unrelated but originate from the same geographical location in Montenegro. No pathogenic variants of other genes of interest, including ADD3 (previous cases with variants in both KAT2B and ADD and nephrotic syndrome have been reported PMID: 29768408), were identified.

PMID: 29768408 - Gonçalves et al 2018 - report 3 families with intellectual disability. Biallelic missense ADD variants were found in all probands, but in one family an additional homozygous variant (c.920T>C, p.F307S) was found in KAT2B. In this family, 3 affected siblings also presented with steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome and proteinuira below the age of 13, dilated cardiomyopathy and bilateral cateracts. Bilateral cateracts were also reported in one of the probands with ADD variants only. In Drosophila KAT2B F307S mutants displayed both heart and renal defects will ADD mutants did not.
