Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points: 4P and 2B. PM1PM2BP4_Moderate

The NM_006005.3(WFS1):c.1219C>T(p.His407Tyr) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000105 in 1,614,070 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 15/20 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. H407R) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineOct 11, 2013Variant 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. -

not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 05, 2022In 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. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt WFS1 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 166583). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with WFS1-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs151244358, gnomAD 0.02%). 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). -
Wolfram syndrome 1 Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterresearchClinical Genomics, Uppaluri K&H Personalized Medicine Clinic-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. -
