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.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Asn246Thrfs*43) in the SLC26A4 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SLC26A4 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16283880, 25394566, 26252218, 26445815). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with deafness (PMID: 27344577). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 558078). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
