Genes affected
WFS1 (HGNC:12762): (wolframin ER transmembrane glycoprotein) This gene encodes a transmembrane protein, which is located primarily in the endoplasmic reticulum and ubiquitously expressed with highest levels in brain, pancreas, heart, and insulinoma beta-cell lines. Mutations in this gene are associated with Wolfram syndrome, also called DIDMOAD (Diabetes Insipidus, Diabetes Mellitus, Optic Atrophy, and Deafness), an autosomal recessive disorder. The disease affects the brain and central nervous system. Mutations in this gene can also cause autosomal dominant deafness 6 (DFNA6), also known as DFNA14 or DFNA38. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces histidine, which is basic and polar, with tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 407 of the WFS1 protein (p.His407Tyr). This variant is present in population databases (rs151244358, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with early-onset diabetes (PMID: 37277527). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 166583). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt WFS1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Benign. The His407Tyr varia nt in WFS1 has not been reported in individuals with hearing loss, but has been identified in 0.04% (2/4406) of African American chromosomes by the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS/; dbSNP rs151244358). Compu tational analyses (biochemical amino acid properties, conservation, AlignGVGD, P olyPhen2, and SIFT) suggest that the His407Tyr variant may not impact the protei n, though this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. I n summary, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with c ertainty; however based upon the computational data, we would lean towards a mor e likely benign role. -

Potent mutations in WFS1 gene are associated with Wolfram's syndrome, an autosomal recessive condition, which cause diabetes mellitus, diabetes insipidus, deafness and optic atrophy.However no sufficient evidence is found to ascertain the role of this particular variant rs151244358 in Wolfram's syndrome yet. -
