Genes affected
SLC29A3 (HGNC:23096): (solute carrier family 29 member 3) This gene encodes a nucleoside transporter. The encoded protein plays a role in cellular uptake of nucleosides, nucleobases, and their related analogs. Mutations in this gene have been associated with H syndrome, which is characterized by cutaneous hyperpigmentation and hypertrichosis, hepatosplenomegaly, heart anomalies, and hypogonadism. A related disorder, PHID (pigmented hypertrichosis with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus), has also been associated with mutations at this locus. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

H syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 10, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu444*) in the SLC29A3 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 32 amino acid(s) of the SLC29A3 protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs267607056, gnomAD 0.03%), including at least one homozygous and/or hemizygous individual. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with histiocytosis-lymphadenopathy plus syndrome (PMID: 17461801, 19336477, 33947670). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 564). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on protein structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies have shown that this premature translational stop signal affects SLC29A3 function (PMID: 20595384). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. This variant disrupts a region of the SLC29A3 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Glu447Lys, p.Thr449Arg) have been observed in individuals with SLC29A3-related conditions (PMID: 19336477, 20595384, 28554179). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxAug 25, 2017The E444X variant in the SLC29A3 gene has been reported previously in the homozygous state in an individual with pigmented hypertrichosis, insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, and pancreatomegaly; this variant was not observed in over 100 ethnically matched control chromosomes (Cliffe et al., 2009). This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation, as the last 32 amino acids of the protein are lost. While not present in the homozygous state, the E444X variant is observed in 5/16510 (0.03%) alleles from individuals of South Asian background in the ExAC dataset (Lek et al., 2016). We interpret E444X as a likely pathogenic variant. -
