Abstract

This study summarizes 47 novel mutations identified during routine molecular diagnostics for Alport syndrome. We detected 34 in COL4A5, the gene responsible for X-linked Alport syndrome, and 13 in COL4A3 and COL4A4, the genes responsible for autosomal recessive Alport syndrome. A high detection rate of 90% was achieved among patients with typical clinical symptoms and a characteristic family history in both X-linked and autosomal recessive forms, and it can be assumed that most relevant mutations have been identified. In numerous positively tested patients, genetic variations which are unknown were detected.
