Haematuria
Gene: COL4A4
This gene was part of an initial gene list collated by Elizabeth Watson, North Bristol NHS Trust, Febuary 2019 on behalf of the GMS Renal Specialist Test Group. Gene Symbol submitted: COL4A4; Suggested initial gene rating: Green; Evidence for inclusion: PMID: 30506145; 29987460; 24052634 , Many relevant publications in pubmed.; Evidence for exclusion: none provided; Technical notes (e.g. non-coding/CNV mutations requiring coverage?): none provided; Other comments: Does Ellen Thomas mean Glycine residues, rather than cystine residues in her PanelAPP comment?Created: 3 Feb 2019, 3:19 p.m.
Mode of inheritance
BOTH monoallelic and biallelic, autosomal or pseudoautosomal
Publications
Variants in this GENE are reported as part of current diagnostic practice
Comment on mode of pathogenicity: Some missense variants cause more severe phenotypes than LOF, particularly ones which affect a cysteine residue. A curated list of known pathogenic missense variants could be curated for this gene.Created: 29 Jan 2016, 12:23 p.m.
Biallelic disease usually causes Alport syndrome (kidney failure and deafness often in adolescence/early adulthood). Monoallelic disease causes autosomal dominant thin glomerular basement membrane nephropathy.Created: 7 Oct 2015, 12:59 p.m.
Phenotypes
Alport syndrome; proteinuria; haematuria; FSGS
