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.

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with deafness with enlarged vestibular aqueduct (MIM#600791) and Pendred syndrome (MIM#274600). (I) 0106 - This gene is associated with autosomal recessive disease. (I) 0201 - Variant is predicted to cause nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) and loss of protein (premature termination codon is located at least 54 nucleotides upstream of the final exon-exon junction). (SP) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v2) <0.01 for a recessive condition (5 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0701 - Other NMD-predicted variants comparable to the one identified in this case have very strong previous evidence for pathogenicity (ClinVar, DECIPHER). (SP) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with enlarged vestibular aqueduct (PMID: 27997596, PMID: 24612839, ClinVar). (SP) 1101 - Very strong and specific phenotype match for this individual. (SP) 1205 - This variant has been shown to be maternally inherited (by trio analysis).

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser517Phefs*10) in the SLC26A4 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SLC26A4 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16283880, 25394566, 26252218, 26445815). This variant is present in population databases (rs776972633, gnomAD 0.03%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with non-syndromic hearing loss (PMID: 19786220, 20842945, 21704276). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 188759). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
