Polycystin 1 (PC1) is aprotein that inhumans is encoded by thePKD1gene.^[5][6] Mutations ofPKD1 are associated with most cases ofautosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease, a severehereditary disorder of thekidneys characterised by the development of renal cysts and severe kidney dysfunction.^[7]

PC1 is a membrane-bound protein 4303amino acids in length expressed largely upon theprimary cilium, as well asapical membranes,adherens junctions, anddesmosomes.^[8] It has 11transmembrane domains, a large extracellular N-terminal domain, and a short (about 200 amino acid)cytoplasmic C-terminal domain.^[8][9] This intracellular domain contains acoiled-coil domain through which PC1 interacts withpolycystin 2 (PC2), a membrane-bound Ca²⁺-permeableion channel.

PC1 has been proposed to act as aG protein–coupled receptor.^[8][10] The C-terminal domain may be cleaved in a number of different ways. In one instance, a ~35 kDa portion of the tail has been found to accumulate in thecell nucleus in response to decreased fluid flow in the mouse kidney.^[11] In another instance, a 15 kDa fragment may be yielded, interacting with transcriptional activator and co-activatorSTAT6 andp100, or components of the canonicalWnt signaling pathway in an inhibitory manner.^[12][13]

The structure of the human PKD1-PKD2 complex has been solved bycryo-electron microscopy, which showed a 1:3 ratio of PKD1 and PKD2 in the structure. PKD1 consists of avoltage-gated ion channel fold that interacts with PKD2.^[14]

PC1 mediatesmechanosensation of fluid flow by the primary cilium in the renal epithelium and of mechanical deformation ofarticular cartilage.^[15]

Splice variants encoding different isoforms have been noted forPKD1. The gene is closely linked to sixpseudogenes in a known duplicated region on chromosome 16p.^[16]
