  • Natural variant: 695-695 in WFS1; dbSNP:rs28937891

Position 695 is in the C-terminal lumenal domain, pLDDT 82.12 (high confidence). Glycine has no side chain — it's the smallest, most flexible amino acid, often used at tight turns. Replacing it with valine (branched, bulky, hydrophobic) is one of the most disruptive substitutions possible in a structured region.

Computational vs Clinical Tension

AlphaMissense 0.994 (Likely Pathogenic). Clinical and computational agree strongly. ClinVar Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic with multi-submitter consensus.


Phenotype focus

Classical Wolfram syndrome 1 + autosomal dominant hearing loss + diabetes + cataract — the full clinical spectrum

Carrier story

G695V appears in patients across the entire WFS1 disease spectrum: diabetes insipidus, diabetes mellitus, optic atrophy, deafness, cataract. Reported in dominant and recessive families. This is the variant that produces the most clinically severe and pleiotropic disease.

Mechanism hypothesis

Predicted to severely destabilize the C-terminal lumenal fold. Likely produces a misfolded protein that triggers ER stress, degradation by the unfolded protein response, and ultimately apoptosis in vulnerable tissues (β-cells, neurons, hair cells). If DynaMut2 returns ΔΔG > 4, this routes to the gene therapy track — the protein cannot be rescued by a chaperone; it must be replaced.

Final Schema Categorization

Category 3/4 — Most Druggable (revised from predicted Cat 1)

Predicted Cat 1 (severely destabilizing); actual Cat 3/4. DynaMut2 returned only -0.84 kcal/mol — far below the gene-therapy threshold. Despite AlphaMissense 0.994 and broad clinical pleiotropy, the WFS1 fold tolerates G→V at position 695 better than expected. The mutation produces disease through specific functional disruption rather than gross misfolding. This finding has major therapeutic implications: gene therapy may not be required for G695V carriers. Pharmacological chaperone screening becomes the priority.
