dbSNP rs147952620: SLC26A4:p.Arg409Cys (chr7-107690199-C-T) – ACMG Classification: Pathogenic (21 pts)

Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 21 ACMG points: 21P and 0B. PS3PM1PM5PP2PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000441.2(SLC26A4):c.1225C>T(p.Arg409Cys) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000093 in 1,612,506 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 13/22 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV000951393: Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SLC26A4 function (PMID:23185506)." and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R409P) has been classified as Likely pathogenic. The gene SLC26A4 is included in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry.

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

Specifications for SLC26A4 are available in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry and recommended for reference when assigning criteria.

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 21 ACMG points.

PS3

PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV000951393: Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SLC26A4 function (PMID: 23185506).; SCV005396379: Published functional studies demonstrate reduced membrane expression and decreased transport activity of the proteins (PMID: 23185506);

PM1

In a hotspot region, there are 16 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 9 uncertain in NM_000441.2

PM5

Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr7-107690200-G-C is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 43497.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

PP2

Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 167 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 19 curated benign missense variants. Trascript score misZ: -1.7621 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to hearing loss, autosomal recessive, Pendred syndrome, autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss 4, thyroid hypoplasia, athyreosis.

PP3

MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.964

PP5

Variant 7-107690199-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-107690199-C-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 371421.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
