Pathogenic variants of Alport syndrome and monogenic diabetes identified by exome sequencing in a family

We present a family of two female Alport syndrome patients with a family history of impaired glucose tolerance. Whole exome sequencing identified a novel heterozygous variant of COL4A5 NM_033380.3: c.2636 C > A (p.S879*) and a rare variant of GCK NM_001354800.1: c.1135 G > A (p.A379T) as the c...

Sumario:We present a family of two female Alport syndrome patients with a family history of impaired glucose tolerance. Whole exome sequencing identified a novel heterozygous variant of COL4A5 NM_033380.3: c.2636 C > A (p.S879*) and a rare variant of GCK NM_001354800.1: c.1135 G > A (p.A379T) as the causes of Alport syndrome and monogenic diabetes, respectively. Two independent pathogenic variants affected the clinical phenotypes. Clinical next-generation sequencing is helpful for identifying the causes of patients’ manifestations.
