rs1057519337, also known as c.530G>A, p.Gly177Asp and G177D, represents a rare mutation in the AMMECR1 gene on the X chromosome. A 2016 study of two Caucasian maternal half brothers with Alport syndrome concluded that the rs1057519337(A) allele, when inherited hemizygously (as normally inherited in a male), is responsible for the disorder. Clinically, the condition includes midface hypoplasia, hearing impairment, elliptocytosis, and nephrocalcinosis. The mutation was not considered to be dominant since the (unaffected) mother carried one copy of it.;news post
T;T
Likely to have a form of Alport syndrome; see discussion there and at rs1057519337
C;T
Mothers with this genotype are unaffected but have a 50% chance of having an affected son; see discussion at rs1057519337 and at Alport syndrome.
