Genes affected
SLC17A8 (HGNC:20151): (solute carrier family 17 member 8) This gene encodes a vesicular glutamate transporter. The encoded protein transports the neurotransmitter glutamate into synaptic vesicles before it is released into the synaptic cleft. Mutations in this gene are the cause of autosomal-dominant nonsyndromic type 25 deafness. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Benign:2
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxFeb 02, 2018This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineMay 07, 2012355-4C>A in Intron 02 of SLC17A8: This variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it is not located within the conserved splice consensus seq uence and has been identified in 1.7% (62/3738) of African American chromosomes from a broad population by the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (http://evs.gs.was hington.edu/EVS; dbSNP rs11568531). -
Autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hearing loss 25 Benign:2
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJan 13, 2018This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -
