The AVP gene typically follows dominant inheritance but rare recessive cases have been reported. A Palestinian founder variant (c.77C>T, p.(Pro26Leu)) was identified as homozygous in at least 6 individuals from 2 families with diabetes insipidus (PMID: 10369876;19897608). Parents were consanguineous, asymptomatic heterozygous carriers in all cases. Additionally, a homozygous deletion affecting AVP gene was found in a case with early-onset neurohypophyseal diabetes insipidus (PMID: 22168581) supporting inclusion of AR variants for this gene.
