## Identity

| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| **Variant** | A575G (p.Alanine575Glycine) |
| **DNA change** | c.1724C>G |
| **Gene · Protein** | WFS1 · Wolframin (890 aa) |
| **UniProt** | O76024 · WFS1_HUMAN |
| **ClinVar accession** | VCV000440419 |
| **Amino acid change** | Alanine (A) → Glycine (G) — small methyl-bearing replaced by smallest amino acid. Side chain removed. |

## Structural Context

| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| **AlphaFold model** | AF-O76024-F1, v6 |
| **pLDDT at residue 575** | **80.88** — well-folded |
| **Domain** | TM8 (563-583), helical transmembrane |
| **Position context** | TM8 (residues 563–583) · position 575 (pLDDT 81). |
| **IDR flag** | No — pLDDT above 50 threshold |

**UniProt features at this position:**

  - Chain: 1-890 Wolframin
  - Transmembrane: 563-583 Helical

> Position 575 in TM8. Neighbors: VAL574 (2.5 Å), GLY576 (2.5 Å — G576S partner!), PRO571 (3.7 Å).

A575G removes side chain creating cavity. Adjacent to G576S (Atlas card). Three Atlas variants in TM8 (A569V, A575G, G576S). AM 0.14 under-call; multi-phenotype confirms.

## Research Path Decision Tree

```
ΔΔG < 2  + binding site affected   →  CATEGORY 3 — docking experiments
ΔΔG 2–4                            →  CATEGORY 2 — pharmacological chaperones
ΔΔG > 4                            →  CATEGORY 1 — gene therapy
pLDDT < 50                         →  CATEGORY 5 — IDR, experimental only
Stable fold + functional site hit  →  CATEGORY 4 — site-specific docking
```

## Final Schema Categorization

**Category 4 — Stable Fold, Function Disrupted**

<strong>Category 3/4 — Most Druggable (AM under-call).</strong> |ΔΔG| 0.41. AlphaMissense 0.14 below threshold but three phenotypes confirm.<br/><br/>Mechanism: cavity creation in TM8. Therapeutic: TM8 multi-variant cluster.

**Why this card matters.** A575G extends TM8 cluster — A569V + A575G + G576S now converge.
