  • pLDDT 43.34 below 70

The underlying AlphaFold model has pLDDT below 70 at this position, so the structure the stability calculation was run on is itself uncertain.

Do not rank this value against a variant from a different region on ΔΔG alone.

Classified for1★ unverified submission

ClinVar classifies this variant as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity for Wolfram-like syndrome (autosomal dominant, OMIM 614296); Nonsyndromic hearing loss (DFNA6/14/38) (autosomal dominant, OMIM 600965); WFS1-related diabetes (autosomal dominant); Cataract 41 (autosomal dominant, OMIM 116400); Wolfram syndrome (classic) (autosomal recessive, OMIM 222300). These are two clinically distinct disease families: classic Wolfram syndrome requires two affected copies, while the dominant WFS1-related disorders do not. One label covers both, and it does not tell you which applies to a given person.

  • Submitters conflict on this classification (1★). Treat the conditions above as submitted, not as documented phenotypes.
  • Phenotype scope is interpretation of submitted records. The computed values on this card (AlphaMissense, DynaMut2 ΔΔG, pLDDT) are measurements of the model, not of a patient.
  • Presentation cannot be generalised from neighbouring variants: one nucleotide over can present very differently. Structural similarity supports a mechanistic hypothesis, never a phenotype claim.

Review status: 1★ conflicting classifications. ClinVar "conditions" is the union of all submissions; 0–1★ entries are submitted conditions, not documented phenotypes.

Highest in African / African American: AF 0.041% (31 of 75,058 alleles), 12.6x the global figure. The global AF describes the general population, not the at-risk group.

No homozygotes reported in gnomAD v4. For a recessive allele this is expected and is not, on its own, evidence either way.

Source: gnomAD r4, retrieved 2026-08-21. Values are allele frequencies. The carrier estimate is derived from the allele frequency (Hardy-Weinberg, ~2·AF) and is an approximation, not a published figure — where a published carrier frequency exists it outranks this column and is cited on the card.

Structural Context

Position analysis: SER790 (2.5 Å — partner of S790W/L), ASP788 (2.5 Å), ALA787 (4.5 Å — A787T). pLDDT 43 IDR boundary. Position 789 adjacent to multi-substitution 790. The Atlas's neighbor extraction surfaces this variant's contacts and connects them to the broader multi-variant target landscape.

Druggability Assessment

Cat 5 IDR — see structural prose. AlphaMissense below threshold (AM under-call class) but mechanism is structurally identified. Therapeutic strategy: site-directed at contacts identified above, or wet-lab validation if pLDDT borderline/below 50.
