RCV000426133 | SCV000534772 | pathogenic | not provided | 2016-12-29 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The Q736X pathogenic variant in the SLC26A4 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant, nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The Q736X variant was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. We interpret Q736X as a pathogenic variant. |
