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 as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

p.Arg776Cys in exon 21 of SLC26A4: This variant has been reported in six proband s with non-syndromic hearing loss with/without EVA (Pryor 2005, Choi 2009, Hutch in 2005, Pourova 2010). However, haplotype analysis in one of the reported famil ies showed inconsistent segregation of the SLC26A4 gene in an affected sibling, suggesting that SLC26A4 mutations were not the primary cause of hearing loss in that family. This variant has been identified in 0.5% (33/6614) of Finnish chro mosomes and in 0.3% (192/66740) of European chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs111033255). In addit ion, this variant has now been identified in our laboratory in 2 patients with a nother genetic cause of their hearing loss. In addition, two independent functio nal studies show that the variant allele had a similar function to wildtype (Pfa rr 2006, Choi 2009). In summary, the current data suggest that this variant is l ikely benign. -

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -
