Abstract excerpt
X-linked Alport syndrome (XLAS) is an inherited kidney disease caused exclusively by pathogenic variants in the COL4A5 gene. In 10-20% of cases, DNA sequencing of COL4A5 exons or flanking regions cannot identify molecular causes. Here, our objective was to use a transcriptomic approach to identify causative events in a group of 19 patients with XLAS without identified mutation by Alport gene panel sequencing....
