Genes affected
SLC4A11 (HGNC:16438): (solute carrier family 4 member 11) This gene encodes a voltage-regulated, electrogenic sodium-coupled borate cotransporter that is essential for borate homeostasis, cell growth and cell proliferation. Mutations in this gene have been associated with a number of endothelial corneal dystrophies including recessive corneal endothelial dystrophy 2, corneal dystrophy and perceptive deafness, and Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

Variant summary: SLC4A11 c.2528T>C (p.Leu843Pro) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the transmembrane region 14 (TM14) (Badior_2016) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.6e-05 in 251080 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.2528T>C has been reported in the literature in multiple compound heterozygous and homozygous individuals affected with Corneal Dystrophy And Perceptive Deafness (Desir_2007, Hand_2016). In addition, this variant was co-segregated with disease in one family (Hand_2016). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least two functional studies reported this variant failed to reach the cell surface in transfected cells (Loganathan_2014, Alka_2018). Four ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite this variant as pathogenic (n=3) and likely pathogenic (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 843 of the SLC4A11 protein (p.Leu843Pro). This variant is present in population databases (rs121909394, gnomAD 0.005%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Harboyan syndrome (PMID: 17220209, 27057589). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1316). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on SLC4A11 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SLC4A11 function (PMID: 24916015, 29327391). 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%). Predicted Consequence/Location: Missense variant In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product [REVEL: 0.89 (>=0.6, sensitivity 0.68 and specificity 0.92); 3Cnet: 0.85 (>=0.6, sensitivity 0.72 and precision 0.9)]. Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000001316 /PMID: 17220209).The variant has been reported to be in trans with a pathogenic variant as either compound heterozygous or homozygous in at least 2 similarly affected unrelated individuals (PMID: 17220209).The variant has been reported to co-segregate with the disease in at least 5 similarly affected relatives/individuals in the same family or similarly affected unrelated family (PMID: 27057589). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -
