Genes affected
PKHD1 (HGNC:9016): (PKHD1 ciliary IPT domain containing fibrocystin/polyductin) The protein encoded by this gene is predicted to have a single transmembrane (TM)-spanning domain and multiple copies of an immunoglobulin-like plexin-transcription-factor domain. Alternative splicing results in two transcript variants encoding different isoforms. Other alternatively spliced transcripts have been described, but the full length sequences have not been determined. Several of these transcripts are predicted to encode truncated products which lack the TM and may be secreted. Mutations in this gene cause autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease, also known as polycystic kidney and hepatic disease-1. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 29, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg3961*) in the PKHD1 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 114 amino acid(s) of the PKHD1 protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs144193508, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with polycystic kidney disease (PMID: 34536170; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 551016). This variant disrupts a region of the PKHD1 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Pro3968Leufs*70) have been observed in individuals with PKHD1-related conditions (PMID: 33940108). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingVictorian Clinical Genetics Services, Murdoch Childrens Research InstituteMay 21, 2020A heterozygous nonsense variant, NM_138694.3(PKHD1):c.11881C>T, has been identified in exon 67 of 67 of the PKHD1 gene. The variant is predicted to result in a premature stop codon at position 3961 of the protein (NP_619639.3(PKHD1):p.(Arg3961*)). This variant is predicted to result in loss of protein function through truncation (although no known functional domains are affected). The variant is present in the gnomAD database at a frequency of 0.0024% (6 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). This variant has not been previously reported in clinical cases. Based on the information available at the time of curation, this variant has been classified as VARIANT of UNCERTAIN SIGNIFICANCE (VUS) with POTENTIAL CLINICAL RELEVANCE. -
