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.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpSep 15, 2021Variant summary: SLC26A4 c.556G>T (p.Val186Phe) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the SLC26A/SulP transporter domain of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 251458 control chromosomes. c.556G>T has been reported in the literature a family affected with hearing loss and enlargement of the vestibular aqueduct (Muskett_2016). In this family, two affected individuals carried the variant along with a second mutation, while one unaffected family member also carried the variant of interest along with a second mutation. In experimental studies, the variant failed to traffic to the plasma membrane of COS-7 cells and exhibited minimal or undetectable anion transport activity in Xenopus oocytes as measured by either unidirectional 36Cl- influx or by 36Cl- efflux under conditions of Cl-/HCO3- exchange or Cl-/I- exchange (Muskett_2016). One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation and classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -
