Kidney disease affects 50% of all diabetic patients; however, prediction of disease progression has been challenging due to inherent disease heterogeneity. We use deep learning to identify novel genetic signatures prognostically associated with outcomes. Using autoencoders and unsupervised clustering of electronic health record data on 1,372 diabetic kidney disease patients, we establish two clusters with differential prevalence of end-stage kidney disease. Exome-wide associations identify a novel variant in a Rho guanine exchange factor specifically expressed in glomeruli. Overexpression of in human podocytes leads to impairments in focal adhesion architecture, cytoskeletal dynamics, cellular motility, and RhoA/Rac1 activation. Mutant GEF18 is resistant to ubiquitin mediated degradation leading to pathologically increased protein levels. Our findings uncover the first known disease-causing genetic variant that affects protein stability of a cytoskeletal regulator through impaired degradation, a potentially novel class of expression quantitative trait loci that can be therapeutically targeted.
