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]

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu1966Thrfs*4) 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 (rs746838237, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (PMID: 15108281, 19940839, 24162162, 27225849). This variant is also known as 5896insA and 5895_5896insA. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 167486). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: PKHD1 c.5895dupA (p.Leu1966ThrfsX4) 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. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (eg. c.9319C>T, p.Arg3107X; c.9689delA, p.Asp3230fsX34; c.10637delT, p.Val3546fsX22). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.3e-05 in 276786 control chromosomes, which is lower than the maximum expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in this gene. c.5895dupA has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Polycystic Kidney and Hepatic Disease and is a common pathogenic variant. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, 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. (I) 0115 - Variants in this gene are known to have variable expressivity. There is significant intrafamilial variation of severity (GeneReviews). (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 (v2) <0.01 for a recessive condition (23 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0701 - Other NMD-predicted variants comparable to the one identified in this case have very strong previous evidence for pathogenicity. These variants have been reported in many patients with polycystic kidney disease (ClinVar). (SP) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been reported multiple times as pathogenic in ClinVar. It has also been reported in multiple individuals with autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (PMID:15805161) (SP) 1206 - This variant has been shown to be paternally inherited (by segregation analysis).

Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method: clinical testing

The PKHD1 c.5895dupA variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Leu1966Thrfs*4). This variant has been repeatedly reported to be pathogenic for autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) (see examples: Ward et al. 2002. PubMed ID: 11919560, reported as c.5896insA; Table S2, Denamur et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19940839; Table 3, Obeidova et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32574212; Table S2, Domingo-Gallego et al. 2022. PubMed ID: 33532864). This variant is reported in 0.014% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD and has been consistently interpreted as pathogenic in the ClinVar database by other laboratories (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/167486/). Frameshift variants in PKHD1 are expected to be pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
