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 made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

PVS1

Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.033290654 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 3.4, offset of -18, new splice context is: aggacgaatccttttcatAGgag. 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 7-107694402-G-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-107694402-G-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 43500.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Variant summary: SLC26A4 c.1264-1G>C is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant abolishes the canonical 3' acceptor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 250736 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1264-1G>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Pendred Syndrome (example: Pryor_2004, Prasad_2004, and Rodrigues-Paris_2010). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 10 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). This variant is present in population databases (rs111033311, gnomAD 0.0009%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with Pendred syndrome (PMID: 14679580, 15689455, 19204907). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 43500). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
