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.

Published functional studies demonstrate reduced membrane expression and decreased transport activity of the proteins (PMID: 23185506); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); A different missense change at this residue (p.(R409H)) has been reported as pathogenic in the published literature (PMID: 16053392, 21961810, 24224479); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 19648736, 23918157, 27771369, 34680964, 23185506, 18167283, 26100058, 28941661, 31035178, 27247933, 29605365, 31387071, 31541171, 32425884, 31589614, 32645618, 38184688, 38474007, 28786104, 21961810, 16053392, 24224479) -

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 409 of the SLC26A4 protein (p.Arg409Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs147952620, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with non-syndromic enlargement of vestibular aqueduct and hearing loss (PMID: 18167283, 23185506, 25372295). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 371421). 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) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt SLC26A4 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SLC26A4 function (PMID: 23185506). This variant disrupts the p.Arg408 amino acid residue in SLC26A4. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 9618166, 19786220, 24224479). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
