PKD1 Nonsense Variant in a Lagotto Romagnolo Family with Polycystic Kidney Disease
A female Lagotto Romagnolo dog with polycystic kidney disease (PKD) and her progeny, including PKD-affected offspring, were studied. All affected dogs appeared clinically inconspicuous, while sonography revealed the presence of renal cysts. The PKD-affected index female was used for breeding and pro...

A female Lagotto Romagnolo dog with polycystic kidney disease (PKD) and her progeny, including PKD-affected offspring, were studied. All affected dogs appeared clinically inconspicuous, while sonography revealed the presence of renal cysts. The PKD-affected index female was used for breeding and produced two litters with six affected offspring of both sexes and seven unaffected offspring. The pedigrees suggested an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance of the trait. A trio whole genome sequencing analysis of the index female and her unaffected parents identified a de novo heterozygous nonsense variant in the coding region of the PKD1 gene. This variant, NM_001006650.1:c.7195G>T, is predicted to truncate 44% of the open reading frame of the wild-type PKD1 protein, NP_001006651.1:p.(Glu2399*). The finding of a de novo variant in an excellent functional candidate gene strongly suggests that the PKD1 nonsense variant caused the observed phenotype in the affected dogs.
