Disease relevance of COL4A5

 

Psychiatry related information on COL4A5

  • We observed a family in which two boys were diagnosed with Alport syndrome, elliptocytosis, and mental retardation and carried a large deletion of the Xq22.3-q23 region, encompassing the COL4A5 gene [6].
  • A score (ATS) was calculated by summing the percent lumen narrowing of all main vessels; alcohol consumption was quantitated by questionnaire [7].
 

High impact information on COL4A5

 

Chemical compound and disease context of COL4A5

 

Biological context of COL4A5

  • However, the COL4A5 gene contains 51 exons, or one less than COL4A1 [15].
  • The alpha5(IV) gene (COL4A5) and the alpha6(IV) gene (COL4A6) are on chromosome Xq22 and are regulated by a bidirectional promoter [2].
  • In conclusion, the hypermethylation of the bidirectional promoter region of COL4A5/COL4A6 is one of the events that is responsible for the loss of expression of the alpha5(IV)/alpha6(IV) chains and the remodeling of the epithelial BM during cancer cell invasion [2].
  • Recently, the target for alloantibodies from an X-linked Alport patient with complete COL4A5 gene deletion was determined to be the alpha 3 chain of type IV collagen [16].
  • RESULTS: In four cases with the COL4A5 frameshift or missense mutations, the COL4A5 chain was either lacking from the EBM (male) or showed a focally negative pattern (female) [17].
 

Anatomical context of COL4A5

 

Associations of COL4A5 with chemical compounds

  • After systematic analysis of all 51 exons of COL4A5, we have now identified 30 different mutations: 10 glycine substitutions in the triple helical domain of the protein, 9 frameshift mutations, 4 in-frame deletions, 1 start codon, 1 nonsense, and 5 splice-site mutations [22].
  • The second mutation, located in exon 46, substituted a cysteine proximal to the NC1 domain of COL4A5 for an arginine [9].
  • One mutation (G289V) occurred in exon 15 and converted a glycine in a collagenous domain of COL4A5 to a valine [9].
  • In contrast, the xenograft from recipients treated with 5 doses of ATS still contained well-preserved islet tissue with many insulin and glucagon containing cells on the day of graft removal when blood glucose had returned to the hyperglycemic level [23].
  • When transplanted into ATS-treated hamsters, the cells transformed by MNNG (0.01 mug/ml) and Ki-MSV produced tumors but MNNG (0.1 mug/ml) transformed cells did not produce tumors [24].
 

Other interactions of COL4A5

  • Recently, several mutations in three other collagen genes (COL2A1, COL3A1, and COL4A5) have been found in probands with genetic diseases involving tissues rich in these collagens [25].
  • Approximately 85% of patients with Alport syndrome (hereditary nephritis) have been estimated to have mutations in the X chromosomal COL4A5 collagen gene; the remaining cases are autosomal with mutations in the COL4A3 or COL4A4 genes located on chromosome 2 [26].
  • The results establish the target for the alloantibodies from an autosomal recessive Alport patient with COL4A3 deletion as principally the alpha 3(IV) collagen chain, similar to the post-transplant alloantibodies from X-linked Alport patients with COL4A5 gene deletions [16].
  • Other candidate collagen genes encoding basement membrane collagen (COL4A1/A2 and COL4A5/A6) were excluded by linkage analysis (13q33-q34 and Xq22), or by sequence (COL4A3) [27].
  • X-linked Alport syndrome is much less common than TBMN and can often be identified in family members by its typical clinical features (including retinopathy), a lamellated GBM without the collagen alpha3(IV), alpha4(IV), and alpha5(IV) chains, and by gene linkage studies or the demonstration of a COL4A5 mutation [28].
