## Structural Context

| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| **AlphaFold model** | AF-O76024-F1, v6 |
| **pLDDT at residue 794** | **49.00** — **IDR (below 50 threshold)** |
| **Domain** | C-terminal lumenal domain (653-869) |
| **Position context** | C-terminal lumenal domain · position 794 (pLDDT 49 — IDR boundary). |
| **IDR flag** | YES — pLDDT below 50 (Cat 5) |

**UniProt features at this position:**

  - Chain: 1-890 Wolframin
  - Topological domain: 653-869 Lumenal

> Position 794 at pLDDT 49 — RIGHT AT the Category 5 IDR threshold. Computational predictions deserve caution. Neighbors: GLU795 (2.5 Å), ARG793 (2.5 Å), SER792 (3.8 Å).

E794K charge-flips in a borderline IDR region. ΔΔG predictions not trustworthy here. AM 0.24 below threshold but Wolfram 1 documented.

## 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 5 — IDR Exclusion**

<strong>Category 5 — IDR Exclusion (borderline).</strong> pLDDT 49 at the 50 threshold. AlphaMissense 0.24 below threshold. Multiple signals suggest computational caution.<br/><br/>The Atlas routes Category 5 variants to wet-lab characterization rather than computational drug discovery.

**Why this card matters.** E794K is another borderline IDR variant — Atlas appropriately flags for wet-lab work.
