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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 13, 2024This variant, c.1243_1245del, results in the deletion of 1 amino acid(s) of the WFS1 protein (p.Val415del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (rs750767821, gnomAD 0.03%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive Wolfram syndrome (PMID: 10521293, 21067485, 27617222, 31600780). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 215406). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesFeb 23, 2024The WFS1 c.1243_1245delGTC variant is predicted to result in an in-frame deletion (p.Val415del). This sequence variant has been documented to be causative for Wolfram syndrome (Hardy et al. 1999. PubMed ID: 10521293; Smith et al. 2004. PubMed ID: 15277431; Hansen et al. 2005. PubMed ID: 16151413; Gasparin et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19042979; Marshall et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23981289). This variant is reported in 0.026% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -

Rare genetic deafness Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineApr 14, 2017The p.Val415del variant in WFS1 has been reported in >10 individuals with Wolfra m syndrome (Hardy 1999, Smith 2004, Hansen 2005, Gasparin 2009, Chaussenot 2011, Rohayem 2011, Rendtorff 2011, de Heredia ML 2013, Bodoor 2016) and segregated i n 7 affected relatives (Hardy 1999, Hansen 2005, Gasparin 2009, Rendtorff 2011, Bodoor 2016). All of these individuals were homozygous or compound heterozygous. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 215406). This var iant was identified in 9/33582 Latino chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Data base (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs750767821); however, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. In addition, in vitro studies suggest that the p.Val415del variant may impact expr ession of WFS1 (Rendtorff 2011). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be c lassified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive Wolfram syndrome based upon repo rted familial cases, low frequency in controls, and functional evidence. -
