Description
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 375 of the WFS1 protein (p.Arg375Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs200095753, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of autosomal dominant Wolfram-like syndrome (PMID: 29563951, 31264968). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 215384). 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 expected to disrupt WFS1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. 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.
