Other genes mapped to this area (16p13.3) include phosphodiesterase IB (PDE1B), hydroxyacyl-glutathione hydrolase (HAGH), phosphoglycolate phosphatase (PGP), and the gene that causes adult polycystic kidney disease (PKD1).

We have compared the clinical features of ADPKD caused by mutations at the PKD1 locus (linked to the alpha-globin complex on chromosome 16) with those of disease not linked to the locus (non-PKD1).

Since no cytogenetic abnormalities have been found in association with ADPKD, flanking genetic markers have been required to define an interval--the PKD1 region--that contains the PKD1 gene.
The mean (SE) age of onset of ESRD is 56.3 (1.8) years for persons with the PKD1 form of ADPKD, and 68.7 (1.7) years for affected members of families in which ADPKD is not co-inherited with PKD1 markers (P = 0.01).
The most likely order of six of the probes from the telomere is palpha3'HVR.64 at the designated locus D16S85, CRI-0327 at D16S63, CRI-090 at D16S45, CRI-0129 at D16S56, CRI-0133 at D16S58, and CRI-0136 at D16S60, with the PKD1 locus for ADPKD between D16S85 and D16S63.
Sixty-eight individuals from six Italian families in which autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is segregating, were typed in DNA polymorphisms linked to the PKD1 locus on chromosome 16.
In conclusion, the expression of Exo-1 in cyst-lining epithelial cells of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) and the altered regulation of TGF-alpha and EGF receptor in these cells contribute to the hypothesis that hyperproliferation is an underlying pathogenic mechanism of ADPKD.

These results suggest that the renal renin-angiotensin system plays a central role in the alterations in renal hemodynamics and sodium management associated with the development of hypertension in ADPKD.
The polymorphic DNA probe VK5B (D16S94) was mapped by genetic linkage in families from the Centre d'Etude de Polymorphisme Humain (CEPH) as being in the same interval as the autosomal dominant adult polycystic kidney disease locus (PKD1).
We studied 17 families with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease to compare presymptomatic diagnosis by ultrasonography with diagnosis by genetic-linkage studies and to relate clinical variation of the disease to whether the PKD1 mutation was implicated.
