Renal Ciliopathies and Nephronophthisis v1.45 TMEM17 Chirag Patel Phenotypes for gene: TMEM17 were changed from Meckel syndrome MONDO:0018921; TMEM17-related to Meckel syndrome MONDO:0018921, TMEM17-related
Renal Ciliopathies and Nephronophthisis v1.44 TMEM17 Chirag Patel Publications for gene TMEM17 were changed from 41054827, 40841990 to 41054827, 40841990
Renal Ciliopathies and Nephronophthisis v1.44 TMEM17 Chirag Patel Classified gene: TMEM17 as Green List (high evidence)
Renal Ciliopathies and Nephronophthisis v1.44 TMEM17 Chirag Patel Gene: tmem17 has been classified as Green List (High Evidence).
Renal Ciliopathies and Nephronophthisis v1.43 TMEM17 Chirag Patel edited their review of gene: TMEM17: Added comment: 2 additional unrelated fetuses with clinical diagnosis of Meckel-Gruber syndrome (occipital encephalocele, polydactyly, and kidney cysts). WES identified a founder homozygous missense variant (Arg94Trp) in TMEM17 gene.

Comprehensive functional analyses of all known TMEM17 variants, using patient tissues/cells and a C. elegans model system, demonstrate a loss-of-function mechanism. The study reveals severe functional consequences, including TMEM17 destabilization and mislocalization, anomalies in cilium composition and function, and abrogation of Sonic Hedgehog signaling.; Changed rating: GREEN; Changed publications: 41054827, 40841990

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.
