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.

This sequence change falls in intron 9 of the SLC26A4 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the SLC26A4 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs111033314, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with SLC26A4-related conditions (PMID: 15679828, 28964290, 31387071, 34680964). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 43493). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.002%). The variant has been reported to be in trans with a pathogenic variant as either compound heterozygous or homozygous in at least 4 similarly affected unrelated individuals (PMID: 15679828, 31387071). The variant has been reported to be associated with SLC26A4 related disorder (ClinVar ID: VCV000043493). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -
