Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP2 PP3 PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000441.2(SLC26A4):​c.416G>C​(p.Gly139Ala) variant causes a missense, splice region change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 15/26 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. 2/3 splice prediction tools predicting alterations to normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G139V) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

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.

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 16 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 20 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 11 uncertain in NM_000441.2
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr7-107674164-G-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 996638.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 167 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 19 curated benign missense variants. Trascript score misZ: -1.7621 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss 4, Pendred syndrome, athyreosis, thyroid hypoplasia, hearing loss, autosomal recessive.
• PP3: Splicing predictors support a deleterious effect. Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF. Scorers claiming Uncertain: max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Benign.
• PP5: Variant 7-107674164-G-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-107674164-G-C is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 556091.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
