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.1905G>A alters a non-conserved nucleotide resulting in a synonymous change. 4/4 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00011 in 251196 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0015 within the East Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in SLC26A4 causing Pendred Syndrome (0.00011 vs 0.0035), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1905G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with enlarged vestibular aqueduct/hearing loss without strong evidence for causality (Dai_2008, Yuan_2009, Li_2014, Yuan_2012). These reports 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. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. One lab classified the variant as likely benign while two classified the variant as VUS. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign.

Ambry Genetics

Significance:Likely benign

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity.
