Nephrocalcinosis or nephrolithiasis
Gene: SLC26A6Cornière et al. 2022 (PMID: 35115415) identified a single family with a heterozygous missense VUS (c.1519C>T/p.R507W) in the SLC26A6 gene. However, the variant was found in 5 out of 280 674 alleles reported in gnomAD (Europeans and South Asians). In vitro studies showed that the variant affects both SLC26A6 transport activity and membrane surface expression, in turn reducing Cl− dependant oxalate transport. Cotransfection studies indicated a dominant-negative effect on WT. Slc26a6 null mice similarly displayed hyperoxalemia and hyperoxaluria which were caused by defective intestinal back-secretion of dietary oxalate (PMID: 21170874; 32660969)
SLC26A6 is currently not associated with any human phenotype in OMIM or G2P.
