    Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease is largely due to mutations in PKD1. PKD1 has an unusual genomic structure, including a 2.5-kb polypyrimidine sequence in intron 21, which has been postulated to lead to a high rate of spontaneous genomic mutation events. In addition, the majority of the gene is duplicated three to six times at 97-99% identity elsewhere in the genome. To identify genomic mutations in PKD1, we developed a multiplex ligation-dependent probe assay (MLPA) in which sites of variation between PKD1 and its copies were positioned at the ligation sites of the MLPA probe sets. Thirteen probe sets covered PKD1 exons 2 through 46, at an average spacing of 2.5 kb. Analysis of 27 independent PKD patient samples showed no evidence for genomic deletions confined to PKD1. Analysis of 15 tuberous sclerosis patient samples in which deletions in TSC2 extended into PKD1 showed no evidence of clustering of breakpoints near the polypyrimidine tract.
