Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is caused by mutations in PKD1 and
PKD2, encoding polycystin-1 (PC1) and polycystin-2 (PC2), which are required for the regulation
of the renal tubular diameter. Loss of polycystin function results in cyst formation. Atypical forms
of ADPKD are caused by mutations in genes encoding endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-resident
proteins through mechanisms that are not well understood. Here, we investigate the function of
DNAJB11, an ER co-chaperone associated with atypical ADPKD. We generated mouse models with
constitutive and conditional Dnajb11 inactivation and Dnajb11-deficient renal epithelial cells to
investigate the mechanism underlying autosomal dominant inheritance, the specific cell types
driving cyst formation, and molecular mechanisms underlying DNAJB11-dependent polycystic
kidney disease. We show that biallelic loss of Dnajb11 causes cystic kidney disease and fibrosis,
mirroring human disease characteristics. In contrast to classical ADPKD, cysts predominantly
originate from proximal tubules. Cyst formation begins in utero and the timing of Dnajb11
inactivation strongly influences disease severity. Furthermore, we identify impaired PC1 cleavage
as a potential mechanism underlying DNAJB11-dependent cyst formation. Proteomic analysis of
Dnajb11- and Pkd1-deficient cells reveals common and distinct pathways and dysregulated
proteins, providing a foundation to better understand phenotypic differences between different
forms of ADPKD.
