Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points: 0P and 2B. BP4BP6
The NM_006005.3(WFS1):c.1706C>T(p.Ala569Val) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000762 in 1,613,402 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts 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. A569T) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

not provided Uncertain:1Benign:1
This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 569 of the WFS1 protein (p.Ala569Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs144492050, gnomAD 0.2%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Wolfram syndrome (PMID: 24890733). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 504710). 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 80%. 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. -
This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 24890733) -
not specified Uncertain:1
The p.Ala569Val variant in WFS1 has been reported in the heterozygous state in 1 French individual with clinical features of Wolfram syndrome (Chaussenot 2015), but has also been identified in 0.15% (37/24030) of African chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs1 44492050). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its fr equency is not high enough to rule out a pathogenic role. Computational predicti on tools and conservation analysis do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Ala569V al variant is uncertain. -
WFS1-related disorder Uncertain:1
The WFS1 c.1706C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ala569Val. This variant was reported in an individual with features consistent with Wolfram syndrome, although a second potentially causative variant was not identified (Chaussenot et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 24890733). This variant is reported in 0.17% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. Although we suspect that this variant may be benign, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
Inborn genetic diseases Benign:1
This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

Wolfram syndrome 1 Other:1
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 rs144492050 in Wolfram's syndrome yet. -
