Last Nucleotide Substitutions of COL4A5 Exons Cause Aberrant Splicing
22 Oct 2021
Abstract excerpt
Introduction COL4A5 is a causative gene of X-linked Alport syndrome (XLAS). Male patients with XLAS with nonsense variants have the most severe phenotypes of early onset end-stage kidney disease (ESKD); those with splicing variants have middle phenotypes and those with missense variants have the mildest phenotypes. Therefore, genotyping for male patients with XLAS can be used to predict kidney prognosis....
