last update : 20-11-2010
Symbol RTA2
Location 4q13.3
Name renal tubular acidosis, proximal, with ocular abnormalities
Other name(s) renal tubular acidosis II
Corresponding gene SLC4A4
Main clinical features
  • persistent proximal renal tubular acidosis
  • associated with bilateral glaucoma (cataract, band keratinopathy) and short stature, mental retardation
  • and associated with defects in the enamel of the permanent teeth
  • Genetic determination autosomal recessive
    Function/system disorder eye
    kidney and urinary tract
    Type disease
    Gene product
    Name solute carrier family 4, sodium bicarbonate cotransporter, member 4
    Remark(s)
    Genotype/Phenotype correlations
  • homozygous, missense mutation (S427L) also resulting in RTA2 and similar eye defects without mental retardation
  • homozygous, missense SLC4A4 mutation (Leu522Pro), short stature, enamel hypoplasia, and bilateral ocular disease (cataract, glaucoma, and band keratopathy).
