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

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 22 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
• PP5: Variant 7-107674163-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-107674163-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 371079.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr7-107674163-G-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Mar 04, 2023	For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 371079). This variant is also known as IVS4-1G>A. Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with non-syndromic deafness and/or Pendred syndrome (PMID: 17940114, 24599119, 31035178). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.006%). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 4 of the SLC26A4 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in SLC26A4 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16283880, 25394566, 26252218, 26445815). -

The SLC26A4 c.416-1G>A variant is predicted to disrupt the AG splice acceptor site and interfere with normal splicing. This variant was reported in the compound heterozygous state along with a truncating variant in an individual with Pendred syndrome and was homozygous in related individuals who presented with hearing loss without goiter (Palos. 2008. PubMed ID: 17940114). This variant was also reported in the compound heterozygous state in two individuals with hearing loss and bilateral enlarged vestibular aqueduct (EVA) (Miyagawa. 2014. PubMed ID: 24599119). This variant is reported in 0.0054% of alleles in individuals of East Asian descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/7-107314608-G-A). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice acceptor site in SLC26A4 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
