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.

Variant summary: PKD1 c.107C>A (p.Pro36His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.022 in 1068452 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 292 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency exceeds the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in PKD1 causing PKD1-Biallelic Autosomal Recessive Polycystic Kidney Disease phenotype. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.107C>A in individuals affected with PKD1-Biallelic Autosomal Recessive Polycystic Kidney Disease and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 256895). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign.

The PKD1 p.Pro36His variant was identified in 20 of 616 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.03) from individuals or families with ADPKD (with or without family history), and was not identified in 150 control chromosomes from healthy individuals (Reed 2008, Bataille 2011, Peltola 2005, Rossetti 2012). Reed et al. could not classify the variant however the conservation score associated the variant with some evolutionary variability (Reed 2008). The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs560049593) as “With other allele”, ClinVar (classified benign by ARUP, and likely benign by Prevention Genetics and GeneDx), and ADPKD Mutation Database (classified as likely neutral). The variant was not identified in PKD1-LOVD or LOVD 3.0. The variant was identified in control databases in 398 of 26042 chromosomes (3 homozygous) at a frequency of 0.02 increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: African in 44 of 8250 chromosomes (freq: 0.005), Other in 18 of 744 chromosomes (freq: 0.02), Latino in 2 of 396 chromosomes (freq: 0.005), European Non-Finnish in 266 of 13680 chromosomes (freq: 0.02), Ashkenazi Jewish in 1 of 224 chromosomes (freq: 0.004), European Finnish in 67 of 1126 chromosomes (freq: 0.06); it was not observed in the East Asian, and South Asian populations. The p.Pro36 residue is not conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact of the variant His to the protein; this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) 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.
