• NM_000441.2:c.21G>C

Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 1 ACMG points: 3P and 2B. PM2 PP2 BP4_Moderate

The NM_000441.2(SLC26A4):​c.21G>C​(p.Arg7Ser) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (no stars). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. R7R) has been classified as Likely benign.

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.

SLC26A4-AS1 (HGNC:22385): (SLC26A4 antisense RNA 1)

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 1 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• 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.
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.12006819).
