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]

Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease Pathogenic:9

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

A heterozygous nonsense variant, NM_138694.3(PKHD1):c.2341C>T, has been identified in exon 23 of 67 of the PKHD1 gene. The variant is predicted to result in a premature stop codon at position 781 of the protein (NP_619639.3(PKHD1):p.(Arg781*)). This variant is predicted to result in loss of protein function through nonsense-mediated decay, which is a reported mechanism of pathogenicity for this gene. The variant is present in the gnomAD database at a frequency of 0.004% (10 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). The variant has been previously described as pathogenic in multiple patients with autosomal recessive kidney disease (ClinVar, Sharp, A. M., et al. (2005), Hao, X., et al. (2014), Bullich, G., et al. (2018)). Many upstream and downstream variants resulting in a premature termination codon have been reported in patients with polycystic kidney disease (ClinVar). Based on the information available at the time of curation, this variant has been classified as PATHOGENIC. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg781*) in the PKHD1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PKHD1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19940839). This variant is present in population databases (rs398124478, gnomAD 0.007%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with polycystic kidney disease (PKD) and features suggestive of PKD (PMID: 15805161, 24710345, 28578020, 29956005). 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: 96387). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: PKHD1 c.2341C>T (p.Arg781X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.1e-05 in 246784 control chromosomes (in gnomAD and publication data). This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in PKHD1 causing Polycystic Kidney and Hepatic Disease (4.1e-05 vs 7.10e-03), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.2341C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Polycystic Kidney and Hepatic Disease (e.g. Sharp 2005, Bergmann 2005, Losekoot 2005). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation, and both of them classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

A Homozygote Nonsense variant c.2341C>T in Exon 23 of the PKHD1 gene that results in the amino acid substitution p.Arg781* was identified. The observed variant has a maximum allele frequency of 0.00004/0.00 % in gnomAD exomes and genomes, respectively. The severity of the impact of this variant on the protein is high, based on the effect of the protein and REVEL score . Rare Exome Variant Ensemble Learner (REVEL) is an ensembl method for predicting the pathogenicity of missense variants based on a combination of scores from 13 individual tools: MutPred, FATHMM v2.3, VEST 3.0, PolyPhen-2, SIFT, PROVEAN, MutationAssessor, MutationTaster, LRT, GERP++, SiPhy, phyloP, and phastCons. The REVEL score for an individual missense variant can range from 0 to 1, with higher scores reflecting greater likelihood that the variant is disease-causing. This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg781*) in the PKHD1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PKHD1 are known to be pathogenic (Denamur E et al., 2010). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with polycystic kidney disease (PKD) and features suggestive of PKD (Sharp AM et al., 2005, Hao X et al., 2014). ClinVar has also classified this variant as Pathogenic (ClinVar ID: 96387). Based on the above evidence this variant has been classified as Pathogenic according to the ACMG guidelines. -

The PKHD1 c.2341C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg781*). This variant was reported in individuals with autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) (Sharp et al. 2005. PubMed ID: 15805161; Hao et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24710345; Fang et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28578020). This variant is reported in 0.0062% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. Nonsense variants in PKHD1 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
