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.

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

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance.

Variant summary: SLC26A4 c.841G>A (p.Val281Ile) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the SLC26A/SulP transporter domain (IPR011547) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00023 in 251110 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not higher than predicted for a pathogenic variant in SLC26A4 causing Pendred Syndrome (0.00023 vs 0.0035), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.841G>A has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with Pendred Syndrome (example: Pourova_2010). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Four clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as VUS (n=3) and benign (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Val281Ile in exon 7 of SLC26A4: This variant has been identified in one individu al with hearing loss who carried a second pathogenic variant in SLC26A4 (Pourova 2010). However, this variant is not expected to have clinical significance due to a lack of conservation across species, including mammals. Many species, inclu ding several primates, carry an isoleucine (Ile) at this position despite high n earby amino acid conservation. In addition, computational prediction tools do no t suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein.
