Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is caused by mutations inPKD1andPKD2, 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 conditionalDnajb11inactivation andDnajb11-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 ofDnajb11causes cystic kidney disease and fibrosis, mirroring human disease characteristics. In contrast to classical ADPKD, cysts predominantly originate from proximal tubules. Cyst formation beginsin uteroand the timing ofDnajb11inactivation strongly influences disease severity. Furthermore, we identify impaired PC1 cleavage as a potential mechanism underlying DNAJB11-dependent cyst formation. Proteomic analysis ofDnajb11- andPkd1-deficient cells reveals common and distinct pathways and dysregulated proteins, providing a foundation to better understand phenotypic differences between different forms of ADPKD.
