Genes affected
PKD1 (HGNC:9008): (polycystin 1, transient receptor potential channel interacting) This gene encodes a member of the polycystin protein family. The encoded glycoprotein contains a large N-terminal extracellular region, multiple transmembrane domains and a cytoplasmic C-tail. It is an integral membrane protein that functions as a regulator of calcium permeable cation channels and intracellular calcium homoeostasis. It is also involved in cell-cell/matrix interactions and may modulate G-protein-coupled signal-transduction pathways. It plays a role in renal tubular development, and mutations in this gene cause autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease type 1 (ADPKD1). ADPKD1 is characterized by the growth of fluid-filled cysts that replace normal renal tissue and result in end-stage renal failure. Splice variants encoding different isoforms have been noted for this gene. Also, six pseudogenes, closely linked in a known duplicated region on chromosome 16p, have been described.

The PKD1 p.Ala1818Ala was identified in 1 of 460 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.002) from individuals or families with ADPKD, and was not identified in 68 control chromosomes from healthy individuals (Rossetti 2012). The variant is listed in the dbSNP database (ID#: rs143916489) The variant was also identified in the 1000 Genomes Project in 236 of 5011 chromosomes (frequency: 0.0471) and in the NHLBI GO Exome Sequencing Project in 9 of 8516 European American (frequency: 0.001) and 554 of 4312 African American (frequency: 0.128) alleles. Furthermore, the variant is listed in the Exome Aggregation Consortium database (March 14, 2016) in 1081 of 49564 chromosomes (frequency: 0.021) including in the African population 969 (61 homozygous) of 4458 chromosomes (freq. 0.2174), increasing the likelihood that this may be a low frequency benign variant in certain populations of origin. We cannot be certain that variant data from control databases is specific to PKD1 and not from one of the six PKD1 pseudogenes. The variant is also identified in GeneInsight COGR and listed in the ADPKD Mutation Database 5x as likely neutral. The p.Ala1818Ala variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it does not result in a change of amino acid and is not located in a known consensus splice site. In addition, 4 of 5 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information, this variant meets our laboratory criteria to be classified as benign. -
