Anticodon-edited tRNA enables translational readthrough of COL4A5 premature termination codons. [PDF]
Alport syndrome is caused by variants in COL4A3, COL4A4, or COL4A5, which encode the α3α4α5 chains of type IV collagen. These variants result in defects in the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) and impaired kidney function.

Trimerization and Genotype–Phenotype Correlation of COL4A5 Mutants in Alport Syndrome [PDF]
Alport syndrome is a hereditary glomerulonephritis that results from the disruption of collagen α345(IV) heterotrimerization caused by mutation in COL4A3, COL4A4 or COL4A5 genes. Many clinical studies have elucidated the correlation between genotype and phenotype, but there is still much ambiguity and insufficiency.

Clinical value of luciferase-based bioluminescence assay in diagnosis of Alport syndrome [PDF]
ObjectivesAlport syndrome (AS) is an inherited kidney disorder caused by pathogenic variants in COL4A3, COL4A4, or COL4A5. In this study, we aim to apply a split-luciferase bioluminescence assay to functionally assess COL4A3, COL4A4, or COL4A5 variants ...

A Novel <i>Col4a5</i>-G814fs Knock-In Mouse Model Reveals Phenotypic Heterogeneity Among Truncating <i>COL4A5</i> Mutations in X-Linked Alport Syndrome. [PDF]
Background/Objectives: X-linked Alport syndrome (XLAS) arises from pathogenic variants in COL4A5. Truncating variants are generally classified as severe, but whether clinically meaningful heterogeneity exists within this group remains unclear. This study aimed to establish a novel Col4a5 knock-in mouse model based on a clinical variant and to determine

Novel mutations in COL4A3, COL4A4, and COL4A5 in Chinese patients with Alport Syndrome. [PDF]
Alport syndrome (AS) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous, progressive nephropathy caused by mutations in COL4A3, COL4A4, and COL4A5, which encode type IV collagen.

Identification of novel COL4A5 variants and prenatal diagnosis in three large families
Alport syndrome (AS) is the second-most frequent monogenic kidney disease and 85% of cases are caused by mutations in the genes of the α5 chains of collagen type IV (COL4A5). The early diagnosis and treatment are essential for the prognosis of AS.

Targeted exome sequencing for molecular diagnosis of pediatric Alport syndrome in Southwest China [PDF]
BackgroundAlport syndrome (AS) is an inherited disorder affecting basement membrane collagen IV. AS is characterized by hematuria and progressive renal failure, accompanied by high-frequency sensorineural deafness and ocular changes.
