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]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Asp3230Valfs*34) 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 (rs398124502, gnomAD 0.04%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (PMID: 12846734, 15805161, 19940839, 24162162). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 96444). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Variant summary: The c.9689delA (p.Asp3230Valfs) variant in PKHD1 gene is a frameshift change that results in the loss of the 812 amino acids of the protein (~20%). This change is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The variant is present in the large control population dataset of ExAC at a frequency 0.000066 (8/121318 chrs tested), predominantly in individuals of Latino descent (0.0005; 6/11506) which does not exceed the maximal expected frequency of a pathogenic allele (0.007) in this gene. The variant has been identified homozygously or in the compound heterozygous state in numerous affected individuals with severe presentation. It is listed as the most common fraimshift pathogenic variant in Spanish population. Lastly, multiple reputable databases/diagnostic centers classified the variant of interest as Pathogenic. Taken together, the variant was classified as Pathogenic.

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 4, with or without hepatic disease (MIM#263200). (I) 0106 - This gene is associated with autosomal recessive disease; however, there are emerging reports of heterozygous carriers of PKHD1 variants developing liver cysts and nephrocalcinosis (PMID: 21945273). (I) 0115 - Variants in this gene are known to have variable expressivity. Significant intrafamilial variability has been reported (PMID: 20301501). (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) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD <0.01 (v2 and v3(non-v2): 26 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0701 - Other NMD-predicted variants comparable to the one identified in this case have very strong previous evidence for pathogenicity. Many NMD-predicted variants have previously been reported as pathogenic (DECIPHER). (SP) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been classified as pathogenic by multiple clinical laboratories (ClinVar). (SP) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign

The PKHD1 c.9689delA variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Asp3230Valfs*34). This variant has been reported to be causative for autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (Rossetti et al. 2003. PubMed ID: 12846734; Krall et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24162162). This variant is reported in 0.040% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. Frameshift variants in PKHD1 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic.
