The NM_000441.2(SLC26A4):c.1001+1G>A variant causes a splice donor, intron change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant is predicted to lead to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). The gene SLC26A4 is a known oncogene (CancerMine: 2 oncogene citations). The variant allele was found at a cumulative frequency of 0.000282 (AC=454) in the gnomAD database across 1,612,484 control chromosomes (no homozygotes observed). The grpmax filtering allele frequency (95% CI) is 0.000331. In-silico predictor (BayesDel (noAF)) classifies this variant as likely damaging/oncogenic. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic (★★). The variant has been observed in cBioPortal in 1 sample across 1 study and 1 cancer type; somatic enrichment level: NONE (Observed in at most one deduplicated cBioPortal case.).

Genes affected

SLC26A4 (HGNC:8818): (solute carrier family 26 member 4) Mutations in this gene are associated with Pendred syndrome, the most common form of syndromic deafness, an autosomal-recessive disease. It is highly homologous to the SLC26A3 gene; they have similar genomic structures and this gene is located 3' of the SLC26A3 gene. The encoded protein has homology to sulfate transporters.
