A nephronophthisis that has material basis in homozygous or compound heterozygous mutation in the TMEM67 gene on chromosome 8q22.1.
Features include always present findings: Stage 5 chronic kidney disease, Liver scarring (fibrosis) (hepatic fibrosis), and Nephronophthisis; and sometimes findings: Strabismus, Anisocoria, Global developmental delay, and Nystagmus and others. 15 total HPO annotations.
Organ System | Phenotype Count | Example Features |
|---|---|---|
Kidneys and urinary system | 5 | Stage 5 chronic kidney disease, Tubular basement membrane disintegration, Nephronophthisis |
TMEM67 function has not been fully characterized.
Nephronophthisis 11 is associated with mutations in the TMEM67 gene on chromosome 8.
Genetic testing for TMEM67 is available. Testing is considered confirmatory for diagnosis.
Phenotype severity distribution: 3 always present features.
