Mendeliome v1.2354 CFAP47 Zornitza Stark Phenotypes for gene: CFAP47 were changed from Spermatogenic failure, X-linked, 3, MIM# 301059; asthenoteratozoospermia; morphological abnormalities of the flagella (MMAF) to Spermatogenic failure, X-linked, 3, MIM# 301059; Cystic kidney disease MONDO:0002473
Mendeliome v1.2353 CFAP47 Zornitza Stark Publications for gene: CFAP47 were set to PMID: 33472045
Mendeliome v1.2351 CFAP47 Chirag Patel changed review comment from: 3 individuals with bilateral kidney cysts with mild enlargement of kidneys (mean age at Dx ~70yrs). They were all undergoing treatment for hypertension, had mean eGFR of ~31, None of them had any liver cysts or any family history of cystic kidney disease. WGS after negative clinical diagnostic testing, identified 3 missense variants in CFAP47 gene [p.(Arg870Gln), p.(Phe516Cys), and p.(Gly6Asp)]. The variants were rare in gnomAD but had equivocal in silico prediction scores, and would be reported as VUS using ACMG criteria. Segregation was not possible as their mothers were deceased. CFAP47 encodes cilia and flagella associated protein 47 a protein that plays a role in the formation and function of cilia and flagella. It is is expressed in primary cilia of human kidney tubules. Knockout (KO) mice exhibited larger kidneys with vacuolation of tubular cells and tubular dilation, providing evidence that CFAP47 is a causative gene involved in cyst formation.; to: 3 Japanese individuals with bilateral kidney cysts with mild enlargement of kidneys (mean age at Dx ~70yrs).

Mendeliome v1.2351 CFAP47 Chirag Patel reviewed gene: CFAP47: Rating: AMBER; Mode of pathogenicity: None; Publications: PMID: 39698362; Phenotypes: Cystic kidney disease MONDO:0002473; Mode of inheritance: X-LINKED: hemizygous mutation in males, biallelic mutations in females
Mendeliome v0.6404 CFAP47 Zornitza Stark Phenotypes for gene: CFAP47 were changed from asthenoteratozoospermia; morphological abnormalities of the flagella (MMAF) to Spermatogenic failure, X-linked, 3, MIM# 301059; asthenoteratozoospermia; morphological abnormalities of the flagella (MMAF)
Mendeliome v0.6403 CFAP47 Zornitza Stark edited their review of gene: CFAP47: Changed phenotypes: Spermatogenic failure, X-linked, 3, MIM# 301059
Mendeliome v0.6181 CFAP47 Zornitza Stark edited their review of gene: CFAP47: Changed rating: GREEN
Mendeliome v0.6181 CFAP47 Zornitza Stark Marked gene: CFAP47 as ready
Mendeliome v0.6181 CFAP47 Zornitza Stark Added comment: Comment when marking as ready: 3-4 unrelated individuals and animal model.
Mendeliome v0.6181 CFAP47 Zornitza Stark Gene: cfap47 has been classified as Green List (High Evidence).
Mendeliome v0.6181 CFAP47 Zornitza Stark Classified gene: CFAP47 as Green List (high evidence)
Mendeliome v0.6181 CFAP47 Zornitza Stark Gene: cfap47 has been classified as Green List (High Evidence).
Mendeliome v0.6171 CFAP47 Hazel Phillimore gene: CFAP47 was added
gene: CFAP47 was added to Mendeliome. Sources: Literature
Mode of inheritance for gene: CFAP47 was set to X-LINKED: hemizygous mutation in males, monoallelic mutations in females may cause disease (may be less severe, later onset than males)
Publications for gene: CFAP47 were set to PMID: 33472045
Phenotypes for gene: CFAP47 were set to asthenoteratozoospermia; morphological abnormalities of the flagella (MMAF)
Review for gene: CFAP47 was set to AMBER
Added comment: CFAP47 also known as CXorf22. 3 different missense variants in 3 unrelated Chinese individuals with asthenoteratozoospermia associated with morphological abnormalities of the flagella (MMAF). Immunoblotting and immunofluorescence showed reduced levels of CFAP47 in spermatozoa in all 3 men. A separate asthenoteratozoospermia cohort showed 1 individual with CNV including whole gene deletion of CFAP47.
Mouse model (with frameshift variants generated (via CRISPR-Cas9 technology) were sterile and presented with reduced sperm motility and abnormal flagellar morphology.
