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

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 6 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.0653009 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 3.7, offset of -9, new splice context is: gaaGTaatt. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 7-107683355-G-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-107683355-G-C is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 1070057.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. Donor and acceptor splice site variants 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). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Pendred syndrome (PMID: 9618166, 23918157). This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 7 of the SLC26A4 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). -
