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.

The c.1002-12A>G variant in SLC26A4 has not been previously reported in individu als with hearing loss or Pendred syndrome and was absent from large population s tudies. This variant is located in the 3' splice region. Computational tools do suggest an impact to splicing. However, this information is not predictive enoug h to determine pathogenicity. In summary, the clinical significance of the c.100 2-12A>G variant is uncertain. -
