Structural Context

Position 569 in TM8. Neighbors: PHE568 (2.5 Å), LEU570 (2.5 Å), LEU565 (3.3 Å), ILE572 (4.2 Å). Hydrophobic TM environment.

A569V is a conservative volume increase. ΔΔG essentially neutral. AM 0.481 below threshold — under-call. Multi-phenotype (Wolfram-like + Cataract + DFNA6) confirms clinical pathogenicity.

Amino-acid chemistry
Alanine (A) → Valine (V) — small replaced by branched aliphatic.
Position in the protein
TM8 (residues 563–583) · position 569 mid-helix (pLDDT 73).

Druggability Assessment

Category 4 — Stable Fold, Function Disrupted (AM under-call). ΔΔG ≈ 0. AlphaMissense 0.481 below threshold but three documented phenotypes confirm pathogenicity.

Mechanism: subtle volume mismatch in TM8 hydrophobic packing. Therapeutic: TM8 site-directed.

Why this matters

A569V is the first TM8 variant at full v3 depth in the Atlas — new helix target identified.
