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.

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 677 of the SLC26A4 protein (p.Arg677Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs397516426, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with bilateral deafness with enlarged vestibular aqueducts (PMID: 35249537). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 179690). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on SLC26A4 protein function. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

The Arg677Trp variant in SLC26A4 has not been reported in individuals with heari ng loss or in large population studies. Computational prediction tools and conse rvation analysis do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the p rotein. Additional information is needed to fully assess the clinical significan ce of the Arg677Trp variant. -

Variant summary: SLC26A4 c.2029C>T (p.Arg677Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the STAS domain (IPR002645) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-05 in 250908 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in SLC26A4 causing Pendred Syndrome (4e-05 vs 0.0035), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.2029C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with mild to severe bilateral hearing loss or congenital hypothyroidism (e.g. Jalkh_2019, Wu_2022, Wang_2020). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30665423, 32425884, 35249537). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 179690). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -
