Genes affected
WT1 (HGNC:12796): (WT1 transcription factor) This gene encodes a transcription factor that contains four zinc-finger motifs at the C-terminus and a proline/glutamine-rich DNA-binding domain at the N-terminus. It has an essential role in the normal development of the urogenital system, and it is mutated in a small subset of patients with Wilms tumor. This gene exhibits complex tissue-specific and polymorphic imprinting pattern, with biallelic, and monoallelic expression from the maternal and paternal alleles in different tissues. Multiple transcript variants have been described. In several variants, there is evidence for the use of a non-AUG (CUG) translation initiation codon upstream of, and in-frame with the first AUG. Authors of PMID:7926762 also provide evidence that WT1 mRNA undergoes RNA editing in human and rat, and that this process is tissue-restricted and developmentally regulated.

Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect: variant abolishes DNA binding (Little 1995, Duarte 1998, Barrera 2016); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Also known as Arg394Trp; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25818337, 10470095, 25501161, 28921387, 28204945, 9460996, 26069768, 20595692, 31937884, 24402088, 15509792, 11299720, 23715653, 27013732, 27899157, 28068926, 28476686, 28720077, 29869118, 28851938, 29982877, 29320783, 29801916, 30963316, 31278746, 31707902, 1655284, 27300205, 1327525, 7795587, 8486616, 32581362, 34031707, 33742552, 32604935, 32352694, 29294058, 34386660) -

This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations. (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org) This variant has been identified in multiple unrelated individuals with clinical features of WT1-related disorders, and appears to occur de novo in several cases. In some published literature, this variant is referred to as c.1399C>T (p.Arg467Trp), c.748C>T (p.Arg250Trp), or c.1384C>T (p.Arg462Trp). Assessment of experimental evidence suggests this variant results in abnormal protein function. (PMID: 12970737, 15509792, 17496156, 23497137, 30450160, 31583044) At least one other missense variant at this codon is considered to be pathogenic or likely pathogenic, suggesting this variant may also cause disease. -

The WT1 c.1348C>T (p.Arg450Trp) missense change is absent in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). The in silico tool REVEL is inconclusive about a pathogenic or benign effect of this variant on protein function. Functional studies show that the variant alters the WT1 protein function (PMID: 1655284; 15509792). This variant has been reported in individuals with WT1-related conditions (PMID: 1655284, 1327525, 1338906, 9529364, 23715653). It has therefore been classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 462 of the WT1 protein (p.Arg462Trp). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Denys-Drash syndrome, Wilms tumor, Meacham syndrome, and diffuse mesangial sclerosis with pseudohermaphroditism and/or Wilms tumor (PMID: 1327525, 1338906, 9529364, 17853480, 23715653). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. Invitae Evidence Modeling of clinical and family history, age, sex, and reported ancestry of multiple individuals with this WT1 variant has been performed. This variant is expected to be pathogenic with a positive predictive value of at least 99%. This is a validated machine learning model that incorporates the clinical features of 485,843 individuals referred to our laboratory for WT1 testing. This variant is also known as c.1180C>T (p.R394W). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 3487). 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 expected to disrupt WT1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects WT1 function (PMID: 1655284, 15509792). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The WT1 c.1384C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg462Trp. This variant has been reported in numerous patients to be causative for Denys-Drash syndrome/Wilms tumor and has been previously documented as c.1180C>T (p.Arg394Trp) (Pelletier et al. 1991. PubMed ID: 1655284; Schumacher et al. 1998. PubMed ID: 9607189; Zhu et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23715653; Lehnhardt et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25818337; Barrera et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27013732; Eggers et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27899157, referred as p.R445W in Suppl. Table 1). In at least two individuals, this variant was observed to be de novo (Gambale et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 31278746; Nagano et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 31937884). Different substitutions at the same position (p.Arg462Gly, p.Arg467Gln, p.Arg467Pro and p.Arg467Leu) have also been reported to be causative for Denys-Drash syndrome/Wilms tumor/nephrotic syndrome (see for example, Bruening et al. 1992. PubMed ID: 1302008; Jeanpierre et al. 1998. PubMed ID: 9529364; Royer-Pokora et al. 2004. PubMed ID: 15150775; Chernin et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 20595692). The c.1384C>T (p.Arg462Trp) variant has not been reported in a large population database, indicating this variant is rare. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
