Various phenotypes of disease associated with mutated DGKE gene

Atypical haemolytic uraemic syndrome and steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome are highly rare kidney diseases that can occur in childhood. In some cases, genetic variants may trigger these conditions, although in atypical haemolytic uraemic syndrome they mostly confer only a predisposition to the disease. Most variants causing atypical haemolytic uraemic syndrome were identified in genes encoding proteins regulating the complement pathway; on...
