Background. The clinical diagnosis of genetic renal diseasesmay be limited by the overlapping spectrum of manifestationsbetween diseases or by the advancement of disease where cluesto the original process are absent. The objective of this studywas to determine whether genetic testing informs diagnosis andfacilitates management of kidney disease patients.Methods. We developed a comprehensive genetic testing panel(KidneySeq) to evaluate patients with various phenotypes in-cluding cystic diseases, congenital anomalies of the kidney andurinary tract (CAKUT), tubulointerstitial diseases, transportdisorders and glomerular diseases. We evaluated this panel in127 consecutive patients ranging in age from newborns to81 years who had samples sent in for genetic testing.Results. The performance of the sequencing pipeline forsingle-nucleotide variants was validated using CEPH (Centre
de’Etude du Polymorphism) controls and for indels usingGenome-in-a-Bottle. To test the reliability of the copy num-ber variant (CNV) analysis, positive samples were re-sequenced and analyzed. For patient samples, a multidiscipli-nary review board interpreted genetic results in the contextof clinical data. A genetic diagnosis was made in 54 (43%)patients and ranged from 54% for CAKUT, 53% for ciliopa-thies/tubulointerstitial diseases, 45% for transport disordersto 33% for glomerulopathies. Pathogenic and likely patho-genic variants included 46% missense, 11% nonsense, 6%splice site variants, 23% insertion–deletions and 14% CNVs.In 13 cases, the genetic result changed the clinical diagnosis.Conclusion. Broad genetic testing should be considered in theevaluation of renal patients as it complements other tests andprovides insight into the underlying disease and its management.

The kidney is a complex organ that maintains physiological ho-meostasis through a myriad of complex processes that includethe excretion of excess water, ingested drugs, toxins and meta-bolic waste products, the regulation of acid–base balance, thereclamation or elimination of various salts, and the synthesis ofa variety of endocrine hormones to control blood pressure,erythropoiesis and bone mineralization. Disrupting this func-tion leads to a broad spectrum of disease phenotypes. At one ex-treme are diseases that manifest as well-recognized Mendeliandisorders such as Liddle syndrome, which is characterized byhypertension with hypokalemia from unregulated hyperactivityof the epithelial sodium channel in the connecting tubule andcollecting duct [1]. At the other extreme are diseases in which amore global decline in renal function leads to chronic kidneydisease (CKD) with a reduction in glomerular filtration rate, re-tention of urea, phosphorus and potassium, and the developmentof anemia and bone disease. The development of CKD may blurclues to the inciting insult even with extensive laboratory testing,renal imaging and renal histological examination [2].
Over the past decade, a number of discoveries relevant to re-nal diseases have improved our understanding of the ciliopa-thies [3], focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) [4],steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome [5, 6] and congenitalanomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT) [7, 8]. Inrecent years, the advancement of next-generation sequencinghas facilitated the simultaneous interrogation of multiple genesfor molecular diagnosis within many disease categories includ-ing those that cause a variety of renal diseases [9, 10]. In addi-tion, exome sequencing (ES) has been used to diagnosemonogenic renal diseases [11, 12]. The diagnostic success ofdisease-focused panels may be limited by difficulty in pheno-typing renal diseases into specific categories. Similarly, ES maynot be sensitive enough to detect variants in duplicated regions,such as the proximal portion of PKD1. We sought to test theclinical relevance of broad-based genetic testing that targetsgenes across a wide variety of renal disease phenotypes to in-form diagnosis and facilitate management of the renal patient.Using a panel of 177 genes, we tested 127 consecutive renalpatients whose samples we received and in this diverse cohortmade a genetic diagnosis in 54 patients. Remarkably, in 13patients, the genetic findings changed the clinical diagnosis.

Study design
This was a retrospective study of the diagnostic accuracy ofcomprehensive genetic testing panel used a cohort of 127
consecutive patients where samples were sent to the Universityof Iowa Institute of Human Genetics for gene screening. Therewere no exclusion criteria. Patients were classified, based onclinical history provided, into the following broad disease sub-types: ciliopathies/tubulointerstitial diseases, CAKUT, tubulartransport disorders and glomerulopathies. American College ofMedical Genetics (ACMG) criteria were used to classify geneticvariants as pathogenic, likely pathogenic, variant of unknownsignificance (VUS), likely benign and benign [13].
Gene selection, platform design and validation, andpatient recruitment
Genes implicated in a large number of renal diseases were se-lected for inclusion in the kidney disease panel (KidneySeq v1)and grouped by renal phenotype (e.g. ciliopathy, glomerulardiseases and CAKUT). Targeted capture of coding exons andsplice sites was optimized using RNA baits selected withAgilent’s SureDesign online software, incorporating 4-foldprobe density and 25-base pairs of flanking intronic sequence.Performance metrics were assessed by studying 31 genomicDNA samples from the CEPH consortium (Centre de’Etude duPolymorphism) using results to improve depth-of-coverage(Supplementary data, Table S1). Additional genes were alsoadded to increase the genetically relevant search space. Theupdated panel (KidneySeq v2) was used in the diagnostic evalu-ation of sequentially accrued samples from patients with renaldisease (Table 1 and Supplementary data, Table S2). There wereno exclusionary criteria.
Library preparation, targeted genomic enrichment andmassively parallel sequencing
After preparing libraries from patient-derived gDNA, librarypreparation, targeted genomic enrichment and massively paral-lel sequencing (MPS) were completed as we have described[14]. In brief, libraries were prepared using a modification ofthe solution-based Agilent SureSelect target enrichment system(Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA) with liquid-handling automation. Hybridization and capture with RNAbaits were followed by a second amplification. Before poolingfor sequencing, all samples were bar coded and multiplexed.Sequencing was done using Illumina HiSeq (pool of 48 sam-ples) or MiSeq (pools of five samples) instrumentation(Illumina Inc., San Diego, CA, USA). Sanger sequencing wasused to amplify and resolve exons 1–34 of PKD1 [15, 16].
Bioinformatics analysis
Data analysis was performed on dedicated computingresources maintained by the Iowa Institute of Human Geneticsusing a standardized workflow for sequence analysis and vari-ant calling [14]. The freebayes variant caller was used to identifyvariants in PKD1. Variant annotation was performed with acustom-built reporting tool.
Variant filtering
Library quality was based on the total number of reads persample and coverage at 30� or greater, excluding low-qualityvariants [depth<10 or quality by depth (QD) <5] and

common variants with a minor allele frequency (MAF) >1% inany population (except for known risk alleles).Nonsynonymous single-nucleotide variants (SNVs), canonicalsplicing changes and insertion–deletions (indels) were retained.Reference databases routinely queried included the HumanGene Mutation Database, ClinVar, the autosomal dominantpolycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) mutation database, theARUP (COL4A5) database and our in-house Renal VariantDatabase (RVD). GERPþþ, PhyloP, MutationTaster,PolyPhen2, SIFT and LRT were used to calculate variant-specific pathogenicity scores as described [14].
Copy number variant analysis
Copy number variant (CNV) analysis was performed usingExomeCopy and ExomeDepth [17]. CNV calls from both
programs were manually curated and validated if breakpointswere identified.
Sanger sequencing
Sanger sequencing was performed for platform validation,for PKD1 testing and to confirm pathogenic variants, designingprimers using Primer 3 (http://bioinfo.ut.ee/primer3-0.4.0/primer3/) [14].
Variant interpretation
A multidisciplinary board was held semimonthly to discussall genetic results on a patient-by-patient basis in the context ofthe available clinical data. Variants were classified followingACMG guidelines. Variants with a MAF>1% were classified as‘benign’ with a few notable exceptions (APOL1 G1 and G2alleles). Variants reported as ‘pathogenic’ in the literature with

supporting functional evidence were classified as ‘pathogenic’.The ‘likely pathogenic’ classification was assigned to missensevariants with pathogenicity scores �4 (based on GERPþþ,PhyloP, MutationTaster, PolyPhen2, SIFT and LRT) if theywere also ultra-rare and in a disease-related functional domain.Novel or rare variants that changed protein sequence but hadan unknown impact on protein function were classified asVUSs. Based on the clinical phenotype and the genotypic find-ings, clinical correlation and segregation analysis wererecommended.
Institutional Review Board
The study was approved by the Institutional Review Board(IRB No. 201805825) for human subject research and informedconsent was waived. The study adheres to the Principles ofMedical Research as stated in the Declaration of Helsinki.

Performance metrics
Performance and validation of KidneySeq v1 using 31CEPH samples showed that >70% of sequence reads over-lapped target regions with a mean coverage of�400�;>99% ofbases were covered by at least 30 reads (30�). This thresholdwas achievable with at least 5 million reads per sample(Supplementary data, Figure S1). Targeted regions covered at lessthan 30� were Sanger sequenced; no additional variants wereidentified (Supplementary data, Table S3). These performancemetrics were used to refine the panel by changing probe density.
Variant analysis
Call accuracy in the 31 CEPH controls was determined bySanger sequencing 29 variants with MAF>1% and 32 variantswith QD<10 in all samples (Supplementary data, Table S4);256 variants that were either heterozygous or homozygous al-ternate were identified (Supplementary data, Figure S2). All val-idated variants with a QD<5 were false positives. BetweenQD>5 and QD<10, there were false-positive calls for bothSNVs and indels. Of the 1643 sites, there were 252 true posi-tives, 4 false positives, 1387 true negatives and no false nega-tives. Specificity (99.71), sensitivity (100), and positive (98.44)and negative (100) predicted values were very high(Supplementary data, Tables S4 and S5).
Validation of sequencing and analysis pipeline
A high-density SNP array was used to interrogate the CEPHsample, NA12287 (1421-14). A comparison of genotype callsfrom the SNP array and KidneySeq v1 identified only one dis-cordant variant from the 3008 identified (Supplementary data,Figure S3a). Through Sanger confirmation, we verified that theKidneySeq v1 variant call was correct and the SNP array was in-correct. To validate indels, we used Genome-in-a-Bottle(GIAB), which predicts 314 indels in the KidneySeq v1 targetedregions. All predicted indels were identified by KidneySeq v1 inaddition to two other indels at QD>5 not reported in the GIABreference sequence but confirmed by Sanger sequencing(Supplementary data, Figure S3b). To test the reliability and sen-sitivity of the CNV analysis workflow, positive samples were re-sequenced and re-analyzed. All known CNVs were detected suc-cessfully on the repeat samples (Supplementary data, Table S6).
PKD1 gene proximal region
The duplicated region of PKD1 (exons 1–34) was Sanger se-quenced to verify variant detection. The panel detected 36 var-iants in the homologous region of the PKD1 gene in sevenpatients selected for this validation. Overall, 94.4% (34 of 36) ofthese variants were verified by Sanger sequence. The variantdetected only by MPS (the same variant was detected in twopatients) was a false positive in exon 15. No false negatives weredetected by Sanger sequencing.
Patients
Genetic testing was completed on 127 patients (77 males).The most common indication was FSGS (17 patients), followedby medullary cystic kidney disease/nephronophthisis (14

patients), Alport or Alport-like syndrome (10 patients), Bartter/Gitelman syndrome (9 patients) and ADPKD (7 patients)(Table 2). Age ranged from newborn to 81 years (0–6 years, 56patients; 7–14 years, 22 patients; 15–30 years, 26 patients;>30 years, 23 patients) (Table 3).
Variant identification and diagnostic rates in renalpatients
A genetic diagnosis was made in 54 patients (43%) (Table 4;46% solve rate between 0–14 years; 46% from 15–30 years and22% in those >30 years). By disease group, the solve rate was54% for CAKUT (7 of 13 patients), 53% for ciliopathies/tubu-lointerstitial diseases (17 of 32 patients), 45% for disorders oftubular transport (13 of 29 patients) and 33% for glomerulopa-thies (15 of 43 patients) (Figure 1 and Table 4). A number ofidentified variants were classified as VUSs as they did not meet
ACMG criteria for pathogenicity or likely pathogenicity(Tables 5–7).
D I S C U S S I O N
We identified a genetic basis for disease in 54 of 127 (44%)patients, demonstrating that broad-based genetic testing canaugment current clinical algorithms used to evaluate the renalpatient. The solve rate for cases decreased with age from 46%for patients between 0 and 14 years to 22% for patients>30 years old. Among solved cases, 9 were X-linked, 22 wereautosomal dominant and 22 were autosomal recessive (6 homo-zygous and 16 compound heterozygous variants). Family his-tory was positive in six autosomal dominant disorders (13unknown), four autosomal recessive disorders (14 unknown)and in one X-linked disorder (7 unknown). Pathogenic andlikely pathogenic variants included missense (32 of 75),

nonsense (9 of 75), canonical splice site variants (4 of 75), smallindels (17 of 75) and large CNVs (10 of 75), demonstrating thepower to detect all types of genetic variants (Figure 1).
In 41 of 54 patients with a genetic diagnosis, data confirmedthe clinical impression (i.e. ADPKD as ADPKD, Bartter asBartter, etc.) but also provided prognostic information, guidedclinical management and/or enabled counseling (Figure 1 andTable 4). For example, the identification of a truncating variantin PKD1 (NM_000296: c.12230_12231delAG) in a 7-year-oldchild with polycystic kidney disease (Case 99) mandates regularevaluation for increasing kidney volume, since truncatingPKD1 variants predict a median onset of end-stage renal disease(ESRD) at 55 years of age, substantially earlier than non-truncating PKD1 variants or any PKD2 variant [72]. In anotherexample, the diagnosis of CKD at age 10 years (Case 8) in twofraternal twins born prematurely led to a clinical suspicion ofjuvenile nephronophthisis. We identified two null variants inRPGRIP1L, which is reported in the allelic disorders Joubertsyndrome, COACH syndrome and Meckel syndrome. Patientswith hypomorphic RPGRIP1L variants develop Joubert syn-drome or COACH syndrome (Joubert features with congenitalhepatic fibrosis), while those with null variants develop Meckelsyndrome, which is considered to be at the more severe end ofthe clinical disease spectrum [73]. While the phenotype can bevariable with Joubert and COACH syndrome, awareness of thetype of genetic variants should prompt a careful and guidedevaluation for extrarenal features, such as liver disease, that mayrequire treatment.
In the remaining 13 cases (24%), genetic testing changed theclinical diagnosis, helped to direct future care, guided genetic
counseling, and/or directed the evaluation process for living do-nor candidates. For example, the indication for screening in a1-month-old (Case 26) was bilateral hypoplastic dysplastic kid-neys. Upon testing, a null variant was identified in EYA1, con-sistent with the diagnosis of branchio-oto-renal syndrome 1(BOR1). BOR1 exhibits variable penetrance and is character-ized by hearing loss, branchial defects, preauricular pits andCAKUT [74]. On further evaluation, the child was found tohave hearing loss and preauricular pits.
We also identified bilineal autosomal dominant diseasesand digenic autosomal recessive disease. As an example ofthe former, in a 6-year-old female (Case 1) with bilateral mul-ticystic dysplastic kidneys, pathogenic variants were identi-fied in both PKD1 (a single nucleotide deletion) and PKD2 (anucleotide substitution that converts the start codon to ly-sine). Each of these variants alone is sufficient to causeADPKD, and the co-inheritance in this patient is consistentwith her severe and atypical phenotype. Bilineal disease israre in humans, although it has been noted in experimentalmice [75–77].
In one case (Case 70), a medically actionable variant in WT1was incidentally identified in a 6-month-old infant with renalcystic dysplasia, ESRD, ectopic atrial tachycardia, left ventricu-lar hypertrophy and seizures. The variant, p.Arg417Cys, isultra-rare, predicted pathogenic and previously reported in twopatients—one with Denys–Drash syndrome (DDS) and Wilms’tumor and one child with DDS who died shortly after birth [38,78]. In light of these reports, the variant was reported to the cli-nician as likely pathogenic for DDS with the attendant risks ofWilms’ tumor.

Unbiased testing advances the diagnosis of renal diseases 325

In some cases, identified variants had insufficient evidenceto be labeled as likely pathogenic or pathogenic and werereported as VUSs (Tables 5–7). In two cases, the genetic var-iants did not meet strict ACMG criteria for likely pathogenicityand were labeled as VUSs, but in the clinical context, the multi-disciplinary group considered these as probably causal(Tables 5–7, Cases 57 and 92). In two other cases, variants clas-sified as likely pathogenic by ACMG criteria were reported asVUSs because the genetic disease appeared irrelevant to theclinical phenotype. One of these was a case with nephrogenicdiabetes insipidus (NDI) and nephrocalcinosis with hypophos-phatemia (Tables 5–7, Case 44), where an identified variant inKAL1 was classified as likely pathogenic for Kallmann syn-drome by ACMG criteria. In the other, a case with hypomagne-semia and dilated cardiomyopathy (Tables 5–7, Case 16), alikely pathogenic variant in ROBO2 for CAKUT was identifiedbut reported as a VUS. In other instances, we identified allelesthat increase risk for specific renal diseases (Tables 5–7). Fivepatients with FSGS, nephrotic syndrome or CKD were homozy-gous or compound heterozygous for variants in APOL1 thatsubstantially increase the risk for FSGS in Americans of sub-Saharan African descent [79, 80]. Other risk variants were iden-tified in CaSR, PLCG2 and ATP6V1B1, which increase the riskof hypercalcemia, steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome andkidney stones, respectively [81–83].
CNVs are significant contributors to genetic renal diseaseand their detection was an important component of our analy-sis [84]. We identified pathogenic CNVs in 18% of positive di-agnoses, including four cases of autosomal recessive JN1(NPHP1), two cases of autosomal dominant CAKUT (HNF1B),one case each of autosomal recessive Alport syndrome(COL4A4) and autosomal recessive pseudohypoaldosteronism(SCNN1B) and a possible tri-allelic form of Gitelman syndrome(CLCNKB; Figure 2).
Alternative methods to provide comprehensive unbiasedscreening for genetic renal disorders include genome sequenc-ing (GS) and/or ES, both of which have been used to diagnosemonogenic renal disorders in a research setting and have beenused in the clinical setting when locus heterogeneity is extreme,the phenotype is very indistinct, or the renal features are only aminor part of a multisystem disease [85, 86]. Neither GS nor ESis optimized for the renal exome, which includes challengingregions like the first 32 exons of PKD1, which are duplicated assix pseudogenes on chromosome 16. Nevertheless, ES remainsan alternative as described by Lata et al., who report a 24%
diagnostic rate in a selected population of adults with CKD, ex-cluding ADPKD, where a genetic disease was suspected basedon family history or there was early age-of-onset of disease [10].In another study of a larger cohort of patients with CKD, ESidentified diagnostic variants in 9.3% of patients [12].
There are some limitations and caveats to our testing strat-egy. First, as in ES, some types of genetic variants that occurwithin tandem oligonucleotide repeats, such as the cytosine in-sertion within a cytosine repeat sequence in MUC1, are difficultto identify [87]. Second, new genetic causes of kidney diseasecontinue to be identified that may not have been present on thediagnostic gene panel at the time of testing. Included in this cat-egory are new and rare causes of kidney disease such asDZIP1L, FAT1 and the NUP and IFT family genes. Third, wewere not always able to verify the presence of variants in transto confirm compound heterozygosity for autosomal recessivedisorders due to lack of parent or offspring samples. In addi-tion, we purposefully omitted complement genes on this panelbecause we have developed a discrete panel for ultra-rarecomplementopathies, including atypical hemolytic uremic syn-drome and C3 glomerulopathy. Finally, it should be noted thatour diagnostic yield is high and warrants confirmation withlarger studies.
In summary, these data add to the body of literature sug-gesting that genetic renal diseases are underdiagnosed andunderappreciated in both children and adults [10, 88–90]. Inthis cohort of patients, presumably selected by cliniciansbased on suspicion of monogenic kidney disease, the geneticdiagnostic rate is very high and is likely to be lower if moreindiscriminate patient testing becomes the norm.Nevertheless, panels facilitate identification of a broad rangeof Mendelian diseases, including cystic kidney disease, theCAKUTs, tubulointerstitial disease and glomerular disease, aswell as non-Mendelian genetic disease, bilineal and digenic dis-ease, atypical forms of disease and unsuspected disease. As such,comprehensive genetic testing has an important place in the eval-uation and care of the renal patient [91].
