Description

Yuta Inoki and a large team of colleagues genetically screened families with inherited Fanconi syndrome, a kidney tubule disorder. The syndrome's gene spectrum is incompletely mapped, and a recently recognized gene, GATM, had never been assessed systematically. The retrospective study covered twenty families who had targeted panel sequencing between twenty sixteen and twenty twenty-four. Fourteen index patients were children and six were adults. Published cases were reviewed alongside.

Disease-causing variants turned up in thirteen of twenty index cases. GATM was the commonest culprit, with seven cases, four carrying entirely new variants. Five other genes accounted for the rest. Adults were diagnosed genetically more often than children here. The twenty twenty-six results argue for broad panel testing and sharpen expectations for kidney prognosis by gene.
