Variant summary: SLC26A4 c.481T>A (p.Phe161Ile) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the SLC26A/SulP transporter domain of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 251486 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.481T>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with hearing loss (e.g., Batissoco_2022, Sloan-Heggen_2015). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 34599368, 26445815). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 550516). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
not provided Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 161 of the SLC26A4 protein (p.Phe161Ile). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with deafness (PMID: 26445815, 34599368). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 550516). 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 80%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
