The 100 000 Genomes Project (100KGP) is a UK-wide initiative that has a goal of using whole genome sequencing (WGS) to identify genetic causes of rare inherited diseases and embed the use of this technology within the NHS. 1 Using data from this resource alongside international gene-matching efforts, four individuals from two independent families were identified harbouring homozygous frameshift or stop-gain variants in PRKG2, a recently described skeletal dysplasia gene. 2 Detailed clinical and radiological assessments helped extend the phenotypic range associated with this autosomal recessive condition while functional studies indicated that both variants had a similar impact on FGF-induced MAPK signalling. PRKG2 encodes the cyclic guanosine monophosphate dependent protein kinase II (cGKII), which acts downstream of the natriuretic peptide receptor-B/C-natriuretic peptide (NPR-B/CNP). NPR-B is encoded by NPR2, biallelic variants in which are responsible for acromesomelic dysplasia, Maroteaux type (AMDM; MIM 602875). Rodent models further implicate PRKG2 in skeletal development 3 4 and cGKII deficiency was shown to be the cause of the dwarfism phenotype observed in Angus cattle. 5 Building on support from pathway analysis and model organisms, a recent study showed that biallelic PRKG2 variants can result in acromesomelic dysplasia, PRKG2-type (AMDP) in humans, 2 adding PRKG2 to a list of> 400 genes associated with genetic skeletal disorders. 6 As only two affected individuals were reported, it is important that the full clinical range of this condition is described. In this study, we searched for rare biallelic PRKG2 variants using data from the 100KGP via the LabKey application available within Genomic England’s research environment. Researchers can apply for access online (www. genomicsengland. co. uk/join-a-gecip-domain). Initial filtering employed a 1% population allele frequency threshold based on data from the 1000 Genomes Project as well as in-house frequency information. An additional family was identified via a network of collaborators and variants were classified using ACMG criteria (online supplemental table 1).In family 1, WGS and subsequent Sanger sequencing uncovered a homozygous pathogenic PRKG2 variant, NM_006259. 3: c. 2282dup(p. Asp-761Glufs* 34; online supplemental figure 1) in three brothers referred with spondylometaphyseal dysplasia (figure 1A). Interestingly, the middle-affected brother (F1-IV-6) also has type I osteogenesis imperfecta (OI). An early clinical exome sequencing study found that for 4.6% of cases with a molecular diagnosis, more than one gene was contributing to a blended phenotype. 7 Complex cases such as these are expected to be more common in highly consanguineous families where large regions of homozygosity (ROHs) make up a significant proportion of the genome; however, for F1-IV-6 the secondary diagnosis of OI was due to a COL1A1 frameshift, which had arisen de novo. OI was suspected in this child because of multiple fractures in childhood (arm as an infant, wrist aged 8 and thoracic T6 wedge fracture) combined with blue sclerae. It is certainly possible that the coexistent OI may have had an impact on the severity of the phenotype in this individual, not least because his height was more significantly reduced than for his two brothers and OI (type 1) is a known cause of reduced stature in its own right.
