Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points: 8P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PP3_Strong

The NM_006005.3(WFS1):​c.1210C>G​(p.Pro404Ala) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000205 in 1,461,746 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain risk allele (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. P404L) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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]

(HGNC:):

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 2 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 2 benign, 12 uncertain in NM_006005.3
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.941

The p.Pro404Ala variant in WFS1 has not been previously reported in individuals with hearing loss or WFS1-related syndromes. It has been identified in 1/111718 European chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad. broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs756869880). Although this variant has been seen in t he general population, its frequency is not high enough to rule out a pathogenic role. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that thi s variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enou gh to determine pathogenicity. In summary, the clinical significance of this var iant is uncertain. -
