Polycystic kidney disease 2 Pathogenic:4
The variant is not observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset. This variant was predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant. The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000477625 / PMID: 22508176). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -
Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with polycystic kidney disease 2 (MIM#613095). (I) 0107 - This gene is associated with autosomal dominant disease. (I) 0201 - Variant is predicted to cause nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) and loss of protein (premature termination codon is located at least 54 nucleotides upstream of the final exon-exon junction). (SP) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0301 - Variant is absent from gnomAD (both v2 and v3). (SP) 0701 - Other NMD-predicted variants comparable to the one identified in this case have very strong previous evidence for pathogenicity. There are many likely pathogenic or pathogenic NMD-predicted variants that have been reported (Decipher). (SP) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been reported in at least five individuals with polycystic kidney and/or liver disease (ClinVar; PMIDs: 22508176, 29378535, 32970388, 33569422). (SP) 1102 - Strong phenotype match for this individual. (SP) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -
This variant was determined to be pathogenic according to ACMG Guidelines, 2015 [PMID:25741868]. -

Polycystic kidney disease Pathogenic:1
The PKD2 p.Arg592X variant was identified in 2 of 1400 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.0014) from individuals or families with ADPKD (Audrézet 2012). The variant was also identified in ADPKD Mutation Database (as definitely pathogenic). The variant was not identified in dbSNP, ClinVar, LOVD 3.0, or PKD1-LOVD databases. The variant was not identified in the 1000 Genomes Project, the NHLBI GO Exome Sequencing Project or the Exome Aggregation Consortium (August 8th 2016) control databases. The p.Arg592X variant leads to a premature stop codon at position 592, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. Loss of function variants of the PKD2 gene are an established mechanism of disease in ADPKD and is the type of variant expected to cause the disorder. In summary, based on the above information this variant meets our laboratory’s criteria to be classified as pathogenic. -
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease Pathogenic:1
For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Loss-of-function variants in PKD2 are known to be pathogenic. This particular variant has been reported in the literature in two individuals affected with polycystic kidney disease (PMID: 22508176). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal at codon 592 (p.Arg592*) of the PKD2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. -
not provided Pathogenic:1
Segregates with disease in affected individuals from several unrelated families in published literature (Zhang et al., 2018; Dong et al., 2020); of note, one family was also found to have a PKD1 variant co-segregating with disease; Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 22508176, 32970388, 34739738, 34101167, 29378535, 33569422) -
