BACKGROUND: Human congenital non-syndromic hydrocephalus is a vastly heterogeneous condition. A subgroup of cases are not secondary to a specific cause (eg, a neural tube defect), and within this subgroup, autosomal recessive inheritance has been described. One homozygous mutation in the DAPLE (Dvl-associating protein with a high frequency of leucine residues) protein-encoding gene CCDC88C (coiled-coil domain containing 88C) has recently been reported in a single family. The role of this gene has not been validated in another family, and no other autosomal recessive gene has been reported.
METHODS: We used homozygosity mapping and whole exome sequencing in two families with primary, non-syndromic congenital hydrocephalus from two different ethnic backgrounds.
RESULTS: In each family, we identified a novel homozygous mutation of CCDC88C. One mutation produced a premature stop codon at position 312 of the protein, while the second mutation induced a frameshift in the last exon, producing a stop codon that truncated the extreme C-terminus of DAPLE, including the 2026-2028 Gly-Cys-Val motif known to bind the post synaptic density protein (PSD95), Drosophila disc large tumor suppressor (Dlg1), and zonula occludens-1 protein (zo-1) (PDZ) domain of Dishevelled.
CONCLUSIONS: Our data validate CCDC88C as causing autosomal recessive, primary non-syndromic congenital hydrocephalus, suggesting this gene may be an important cause of congenital hydrocephalus, and underscore the important role of the C-terminal PDZ domain-binding motif in the DAPLE protein.
