Mutations in the gene SLC4A4, encoding Na+-HCO3- cotransporter (NBC-1), have been found in proximal RTA with ocular abnormalities; in the gene SLC4A1, encoding Cl(-)-HCO3- exchanger (AE1), in autosomal dominant distal RTA; in the gene ATP6B1, encoding B1 subunit of H+-ATPase, in autosomal recessive distal RTA with sensorineural deafness; and in the gene CA2, encoding carbonic anhydrase II, in autosomal recessive osteopetrosis.

The hearing loss may thus be paralleled by various renal phenotypes including a subtle decrease of proximal Na(+)-coupled transport (KCNE1/KCNQ1), impaired K(+) secretion (KCNMA1), limited HCO(3)(-) elimination (SLC26A4), NaCl wasting (BSND and CLCNKB), renal tubular acidosis (ATP6V1B1, ATPV0A4, and KCC4), or impaired urinary concentration (CLCNKA).
Accordingly, KSHV upregulated the expression of RTA (Orf50), a master transactivator of KSHV lytic replication, and activated its promoter during primary infection.
Hyperkalemic RTA accompanied by hypertension (pseudohypoaldosteronism type 2 [PHA2]) is caused by dominant gain-of-function mutations in the kinases WNK1 and WNK4.
By CNI dosage reduction or adding low dose fludrocortisone, or temporarily switching to SRL, the prognosis of CNI-induced hyperkalemic RTA is favourable.
In this study, the effect of 3-2-(2-aminoethylamino) ethylamino propyl trimethoxysilane (ETAS) modification and post rapid thermal annealing (RTA) treatment on the adhesion of electroless plated nickel-phosphorus (ELP Ni-P) film on polyvinyl alcohol-capped palladium nanoclusters (PVA-Pd) catalyzed silicon wafers is systematically investigated.
Genetic mutation on NR3C2 may contribute to the development of type IV RTA as a complication of UTI in infants without identifiable risk factors, such as urinary tract anomalies.
Accordingly, KSHV upregulated the expression of RTA (Orf50), a master transactivator of KSHV lytic replication, and activated its promoter during primary infection.

The role of NOTCH2 and JAG1 in formation of proximal nephron structures and podocytes might explain the observed phenotypes of renal dysplasia and proteinuria in patients with Alagille syndrome, and renal tubular acidosis may be the result of JAG1 expression in the collecting ducts.
Familial tumoral calcinosis caused by a novel FGF23 mutation: response to induction of tubular renal acidosis with acetazolamide and the non-calcium phosphate binder sevelamer.
By studying molecular mechanisms of human disease-causing missense mutations within <i>a</i> subunit isoforms, we may identify domains critical for V-ATPase targeting, activity and/or regulation. cDNA-encoded FLAG-tagged human wildtype ATP6V0A2 (<i>a</i>2) and ATP6V0A4 (<i>a</i>4) subunits and their mutants, <i>a</i>2<sup>P405L</sup> (causing cutis laxa), and <i>a</i>4<sup>R449H</sup> and <i>a</i>4<sup>G820R</sup> (causing renal tubular acidosis, dRTA), were transiently expressed in HEK 293 cells.
In addition, anemia without ring sideroblasts was found in three other patients with mitochondrial disorders, including two children with later onset of PS and one child with failure to thrive, microcephaly, developmental delay, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and renal tubular acidosis due to the heterozygous mutations c.610A>G (p.Asn204Asp) and c.674C>T (p.Pro225Leu) in the COX10 gene encoding the cytochrome c oxidase assembly factor.
