AlphaMissense + AlphaFold card. This variant is mapped from AlphaMissense pathogenicity and AlphaFold confidence. The DynaMut2 ΔΔG stability prediction and the wild-type/mutant structural comparison (dual-pane + bond network) are computed per-variant and backfill here — they require a DynaMut2 submission, unlike the precomputed AlphaMissense score.

Classified for2★ documented assertion

ClinVar classifies this variant as Benign/Likely benign for WFS1-related diabetes (autosomal dominant); Wolfram syndrome (classic) (autosomal recessive, OMIM 222300); Wolfram-like syndrome (autosomal dominant, OMIM 614296); Nonsyndromic hearing loss (DFNA6/14/38) (autosomal dominant, OMIM 600965); Cataract 41 (autosomal dominant, OMIM 116400); WFS1-related spectrum (unresolved mode) (dominant or recessive). ClinVar records this under a WFS1-spectrum label that spans both disease families — recessive Wolfram syndrome (biallelic) and the dominant WFS1-related disorders. The label does not resolve which applies, and it is not a severity statement.

  • Presentation cannot be generalised from neighbouring variants: one nucleotide over can present very differently. Structural similarity supports a mechanistic hypothesis, never a phenotype claim.

Highest-frequency population
South Asian · AF 1.17%

Highest in South Asian: AF 1.17% (1064 of 91,048 alleles), 3.2x the global figure. The global AF describes the general population, not the at-risk group.

29 homozygotes reported in gnomAD v4 (18 South Asian; 2 Ashkenazi Jewish; 1 Middle Eastern; 6 European (non-Finnish); 2 Remaining individuals). gnomAD excludes individuals with severe pediatric disease, so homozygotes in this dataset argue against a fully penetrant severe recessive phenotype and belong in the clinical picture. This is interpretive signal, not a classification.

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.
