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 Uncertain_significance. Variant got 5 ACMG points.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine	Jul 20, 2015	The p.Asp339Asn variant in WFS1 has not been previously reported in individuals with hearing loss, but has been identified in 1/66734 European chromosomes by th e Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs77 2392224). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis do not provid e strong support for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, the clinic al significance of the p.Asp339Asn variant is uncertain. -
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Feb 21, 2014	This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -

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 rs772392224 in Wolfram's syndrome yet. -

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) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt WFS1 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 215354). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal dominant deafness (PMID: 32382995). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 339 of the WFS1 protein (p.Asp339Asn). -
