Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis
- FSGS Susceptibility (CD2AP)
Variants in CD2AP increase susceptibility to focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, with incomplete penetrance.
- ClinGen rates the link definitive
- 2 GenCC submitters rate it definitive or strong
What knowing changes
Knowing can prompt periodic urine protein and kidney function checks.
How CD2AP is laid out
- Coding sequence
- Untranslated region
- Intron
- Direction of transcription
- Known disease-causing sites
- Stretches short reads find hard
Exons of the gene's MANE Select transcript (release v1.5), from NCBI and EMBL-EBI, on the GRCh38 reference genome.
Chromosome bands from UCSC's GRCh38 ideogram (2022-10-29).
Nearby genes from Ensembl release 116, on GRCh38.
Exons make up 5.4 kb of the gene's 149.5 kb; 1,920 of those bases code for the protein.
How a genome test reads CD2AP
14
positions in CD2AP where ClinVar classes a change as pathogenic or likely pathogenic
None of them falls in a region short reads find hard.
A whole genome covers all 149.5 kb of CD2AP, introns included, not only the 5.4 kb of exons.
