Genes affected

SLC38A8 (HGNC:32434): (solute carrier family 38 member 8) This gene encodes a putative sodium-dependent amino-acid/proton antiporter. The protein has eleven transmembrane domains, an extracellular N-terminus and an intracellular C-terminal tail. The protein is a member of the SLC38 sodium-coupled neutral amino acid transporter family of proteins. Mutations in this gene result in foveal hypoplasia with or without optic nerve misrouting and/or anterior segment dysgenesis. [provided by RefSeq, May 2014]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu233*) in the SLC38A8 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SLC38A8 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 24290379). This variant is present in population databases (rs372929441, gnomAD 0.002%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SLC38A8-related conditions. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
