ADTKD MUC1

An inherited disorder that causes a gradual loss of kidney function, caused by a mutation in the MUC1 gene that leads to production of an abnormal mucin 1 protein, which deposits in the kidney and leads to slow loss of kidney function¹.

Prevalence

2.5 1,000,000

Disease is affected 1-4/1,000,000 (likely an underestimate due to unremarkable findings); repeat expansion responsibile for 95% of disease²

Age of Onset Details

Age of onset for end-stage renal disease (the only systemic manifestation) ranges from 20-70².

Locus

chr1:155160963-155162030

chr1:155188487-155192239

t2t

chr1:154328103-154330802

Details

Disease is caused by the single base expansion of a heptanucleotide (7) cytosine homopolymer tract within one copy of a coding VNTR, resulting in a frameshift mutation. This VNTR has a 60 bp motif which ranges in copy number from 20-125 (~1.5-5 kb) and is GC-rich (>80%). The specific copy of the VNTR motif involved varies by family but is consistent within a family³. This locus is particularly difficult to genotype⁴.

Mechanism

GoF

Toxic protein product accumulates in kidneys²
