Case report: Preimplantation genetic testing for X-linked alport syndrome caused by variation in the COL4A5 gene [PDF]
X-Linked Alport Syndrome (XLAS) is an X-linked, dominant, hereditary nephropathy mainly caused by mutations in the COL4A5 gene, found on chromosome Xq22. In this study, we reported a pedigree with XLAS caused by a COL4A5 mutation.

Case Report: Evaluation of COL4A5 non-canonical splicing variants in two families
IntroductionAlport syndrome is one of the most prevalent monogenic kidney diseases, resulting from the defects in COL4A3, COL4A4, and/or COL4A5 genes. Interpretation of non-canonical splicing variants can be challenging.

Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Activation in Alport Syndrome Varies Between Genotype and Cell Type
Alport syndrome is a hereditary progressive chronic kidney disease caused by mutations in type IV collagen genes COL4A3/4/5. X-linked Alport syndrome (XLAS) is caused by mutations in the COL4A5 gene and is the most common form of Alport syndrome.

The First COL4A5 Exon 41A Glycine Substitution in a Family With Alport Syndrome
Background: X-linked Alport syndrome is caused by mutations in the COL4A5 gene, which encodes the a5(IV) chain. No mutations were detected in COL4A5 exons 41A and 41B.Materials and Methods: A Chinese family with suspected Alport syndrome was enrolled in ...

X-Linked and Autosomal Recessive Alport Syndrome: Pathogenic Variant Features and Further Genotype-Phenotype Correlations. [PDF]
Alport syndrome results from mutations in the COL4A5 (X-linked) or COL4A3/COL4A4 (recessive) genes. This study examined 754 previously- unpublished variants in these genes from individuals referred for genetic testing in 12 accredited diagnostic ...
