Genotype-Phenotype Correlations for Pathogenic COL4A3–COL4A5 Variants in X-Linked, Autosomal Recessive, and Autosomal Dominant Alport Syndrome
6 May 2022
Abstract excerpt
Alport syndrome is inherited as an X-linked (XL), autosomal recessive (AR), or autosomal dominant (AD) disease, where pathogenic COL4A3 – COL4A5 variants affect the basement membrane collagen IV α3α4α5 network. About 50% of pathogenic variants in each gene (major rearrangements and large deletions in 15%, truncating variants in 20%, splicing changes in 15%) are associated with “severe” disease with earlier onset...
