Abstract excerpt
Pathogenic variants in specific complement-related genes lead to atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS). Some reports have indicated that patients with digenic variants in these genes might present severer phenotypes. Upon detecting novel intronic variants, transcriptional analysis is necessary to prove pathogenicity; however, when intronic variants are located in intron 1 and, as a result, no transcript is...
