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.

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.1707+6T>C variant in SLC26A4 was absent from large population studies, but has been identified by our laboratory in one individual with hearing loss and e nlarged vestibular aqueducts (EVA) who also carried a pathogenic variant on the other copy of SLC26A4. This variant is located in the 5' splice region. Computat ional tools do not suggest an impact to splicing, though this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. However, the presence of this vari ant in combination with a reported pathogenic variant and in an individual with hearing loss and EVA, increases the likelihood that the c.1707+6T>C variant is p athogenic. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establi sh its clinical significance, the c.1707+6T>C variant is likely pathogenic. -

This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change falls in intron 15 of the SLC26A4 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the SLC26A4 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with deafness (Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 179934). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
