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]

Submissions by phenotype

not provided Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJan 09, 2024In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 30245029, 28432734, 37121227, 21602428, 29529044, Yin2023[Poster]) -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 02, 2024This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 795 of the WFS1 protein (p.Glu795Asp). This variant is present in population databases (rs373310972, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with WFS1-related conditions (PMID: 21602428, 29529044). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 166609). 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 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. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineJan 16, 2020Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Benign. The p.Glu795Asp variant in WFS1 has been previously reported in one individual with hearing loss, one individual with Wolfram syndrome who also had a second variant in WFS1, and one individual with hearing loss with delayed walking, strabismus and cerebral palsy who also had a second variant in WFS1 (Rohayem 2011, Kobayashi 2018, LMM data). It has also been identified in 0.03% (7/24520) of African chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org) and is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 166609). Glutamic acid (Glu) at position 795 is not highly conserved in mammals and evolutionary distant species, and several species (Weddell seal, bat, armadillo, 10 fish species) carry an aspartic acid (Asp), supporting that this change at this position may be tolerated, which is consistent with computational prediction tools, which suggest that that this variant may not impact the protein. In summary, while the clinical significance of the p.Glu795Asp variant is uncertain, the lack of evolutionary conservation and computational data suggest that it is more likely to be benign.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus;C4551693:Wolfram syndrome 1 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingNew York Genome CenterNov 13, 2022The c.2385G>C variant has previously been reported in an individual with sporadic hearing loss [PMID: 29529044] and in a compound heterozygous state along with p.(Asp797Val) in individual(s) from a cohort of patients with Wolfram syndrome-related diabetes [PMID:21602428]. This variant has been deposited in ClinVar [ClinVarID: 166609] as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. The c.2385G>C variant is observed in 47 alleles (0.0080% MAF with 0 homozygotes) in population databases (gnomAD v2.1.1 and v3.1.2, TOPMed Freeze 8). The c.2385G>C variant is located in exon 8 of this 8-exon gene and is predicted to replace a moderately conserved glutamic acid with aspartic acid at position 795 in the C-terminal domain of the encoded protein [PMID:29529044]. In silico predictions for p.(Glu795Asp) are inconclusive of the variant's effect [(CADD v1.6 = 21.9, REVEL = 0.522)]; however, there are no functional studies to support or refute these predictions. Based on available evidence this c.2385G>C p.(Glu795Asp) variant identified in WFS1 is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
