Mutations in the X-chromosomal V2 receptor gene are known to cause nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI). Besides the X-linked form, an autosomal mode of inheritance has been described. Recently, mutations in the autosomal gene coding for water-channel aquaporin 2 (AQP2) of the renal collecting duct were reported in an NDI patient. In the present study, missense mutations and a single nucleotide deletion in the aquaporin 2 gene of three NDI patients from consanguineous matings are described. Expression studies in Xenopus oocytes showed that the missense AQP2 proteins are nonfunctional. These results prove that mutations in the AQP2 gene cause autosomal recessive NDI.

Pedigrees of the 3 NDI-families. Blackened symbols de
note affected individuals; hatched symbols denote that NDI is suspected;
and symbols with diagonal slashes through them denote deceased indi
viduals. Presence of the mutant alleles is depicted by the relevant amino
acid substitution (R187C or G64R) or single nucleotide deletion (del);
and normal alleles are denoted by a plus sign.
Figure 2
Human AQP2 cDNA gene sequence and deduced
amino acid sequence. Nucleotide numbering of AQP2 starts at the initi
ation site of translation. Exon and intron sequences are depicted by up
percase and lowercase characters, respectively. Flanking intron sequences
are separated by dots. The nucleotides mutated in the AQP2 genes of the
patients are indicated above the DNA sequence: V = CSS9 changed to T
in patient 1; A = G190 changed to A in patient 2; and A = C369 deletion
in patient 3. The genomic sequence is deposited in GenBank under ac
cession number Z29491.

Proposed topology of the AQP2 protein. The positions
of the single nucleotide deletion and amino acid substitutions found in
the patients are indicated by arrows. The amino acid residues that are
conserved within the MIP family are indicated by blackened symbols.

wild-type AQP2 and/or AQP2 harboring the substitution of arginine 64
for glycine (G64R). Mean and SEM values of at least 10 oocytes are
shown.
