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

The p.Leu760Met variant in WFS1 has not been previously reported in individuals with hearing loss and was absent from large population studies. Computational pr ediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may impact th e protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathoge nicity. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Leu760Met variant is unce rtain. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM2; PP3. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.2278C>A (p.L760M) alteration is located in exon 8 (coding exon 7) of the WFS1 gene. This alteration results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 2278, causing the leucine (L) at amino acid position 760 to be replaced by a methionine (M). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

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. 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) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on WFS1 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 506271). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with WFS1-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 760 of the WFS1 protein (p.Leu760Met). -

Significance: Uncertain risk allele

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: research

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 rs1553878931 in Wolfram's syndrome yet. -
