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

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.07042254 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 8.1, offset of 21, new splice context is: tgatatttggtggcttgcAGatt. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 7-107674944-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-107674944-G-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 446452.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 446452). This variant is also known as IVS5-1G>A. Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with SLC26A4-related conditions (PMID: 14508505, 25788563). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 5 of the SLC26A4 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in SLC26A4 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16283880, 25394566, 26252218, 26445815). -
