A Novel SLC26A4 Frameshift Variant Is Associated with Reduced Mutant-Allele RNA Abundance in Blood Leukocytes
2026-02-27
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>A novel SLC26A4 mutation, c.997_998insA, was identified in a 4-year-old child presenting with classic enlarged vestibular aqueduct (EVA). This single-nucleotide insertion causes a frameshift and introduces a premature termination codon (PTC), suggesting a potential role for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). Although AlphaGenome predicted no appreciable reduction in RNA abundance, pyro...
