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.

Variant summary: SLC26A4 c.463A>G (p.Met155Val) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of four in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.4e-05 in 251478 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.463A>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Pendred Syndrome or hearing loss, without strong evidence for causality (Chen_2011, Haraksingh_2014). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Pendred Syndrome. 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: 21704276, 25528277). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 229259). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.Met155Val variant in SLC26A4 has been previously reported in at least one individual with hearing loss (Chen 2011, Haraksingh 2014); however, a variant af fecting the remaining copy of SLC26A4 was not reported. This variant was identi fied in 1/66738 European and 4/8654 East Asian chromosomes by the Exome Aggregat ion Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs201931861); howeve r its frequency is not high enough to rule out a pathogenic role. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, the clinical significance of the p .Met155Val variant is uncertain. -
