Renal Ciliopathies and Nephronophthisis v1.32 | TMEM17 |
Chirag Patel gene: TMEM17 was added gene: TMEM17 was added to Renal Ciliopathies and Nephronophthisis. Sources: Literature Mode of inheritance for gene: TMEM17 was set to BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal Publications for gene: TMEM17 were set to Pre-print: Clinical Genetics, 2025; 0:1–7 Phenotypes for gene: TMEM17 were set to Meckel syndrome MONDO:0018921; TMEM17-related Review for gene: TMEM17 was set to AMBER Added comment: 4 fetuses (TOP/deceased) from 4 consanguineous unrelated families with a clinical diagnosis of Meckel-Gruber syndrome. Clinical features includes: encephalocele (4/4), enlarged/cystic kidneys (4/4), and postaxial polydactyly (1/4). WES identified 3 homozygous variants (p.(Glu2Serfs*58); p.(Pro123Thrfs*9); and p.(Pro123Arg)). They also reported a 5th consanguineous family with 3 affected fetuses with clinical diagnosis of Meckel-Gruber syndrome. Both parents were heterozygote carriers of a TMEM17 variant (p.(Glu2Serfs*58)) but biological material from the fetuses was not available. No functional studies performed. However, TMEM17 is a critical component of a protein complex in the basal body at the base of cilia. Knockdown of Tmem17 via small interfering RNA has been shown to have a modest effect on cilia formation, but significantly reduces the amount of the somatostatin receptor Sstr3 (182453) that localizes to cilia.
