Genes affected
NEK8 (HGNC:13387): (NIMA related kinase 8) This gene encodes a member of the serine/threionine protein kinase family related to NIMA (never in mitosis, gene A) of Aspergillus nidulans. The encoded protein may play a role in cell cycle progression from G2 to M phase. Mutations in the related mouse gene are associated with a disease phenotype that closely parallels the juvenile autosomal recessive form of polycystic kidney disease in humans.

Nephronophthisis 9 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 16, 2022This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 602 of the NEK8 protein (p.Arg602Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs773883764, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with nephronophthisis (PMID: 26967905). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 490180). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects NEK8 function (PMID: 26967905). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
