Congenital heart defects (CHDs) are the most common types of birth defects, and global incidence of CHDs is on the rise. Despite the prevalence of CHDs, the genetic determinants of the defects are still in the process of being identified. Herein, we report a consanguineous Saudi family with three CHD affected daughters. We used whole exome sequencing (WES) to investigate the genetic cause of CHDs in the affected daughters. We found that all affected individuals were homozygous for a novel splice-altering variant (NM_001330069.1: c.265-1G>T) of PRKD1, which encodes a calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase in the heart. The homozygous variant was found in the affected patients with Pulmonary Stenosis (PS), Truncus Arteriosis (TA), and Atrial Septal Defect (ASD). Based on the family's pedigree, the variant acts in an autosomal recessive manner, which makes it the second autosomal recessive variant of PRKD1 to be identified with a link to CHDs, while all other previously described variants act dominantly. Interestingly, the father of the affected daughters was also homozygous for the variant, though he was asymptomatic of CHDs himself. Since both of his sisters had CHDs as well, this raises the possibility that the novel PRKD1 variant may undergo autosomal recessive inheritance mode with gender limitation. This finding confirms that CHD can be associated with both dominant and recessive mutations of the PRKD1 gene, and it provides a new insight to genotype-phenotype association between PRKD1 and CHDs. To our knowledge, this is the first report of this specific PRKD1 mutation associated with CHDs.
