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]

This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 545 of the WFS1 protein (p.Val545Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs201993978, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Wolfram-like syndrome (PMID: 29563951). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 215391). 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 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. -

The p.Val545Met variant in WFS1 has been identified by our laboratory in 1 indiv idual with hearing loss. It has also been identified in 0.01% (18/126656) of Eur opean chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), and has been rep orted in ClinVar (Variation ID 215391). Computational prediction tools and conse rvation analysis do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the p rotein. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Val545Met is uncertain. A CMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM2_Supporting. -
