Category 4 — Stable Fold, Function Disrupted
ΔΔG confidence: Reduced confidence · Transmembrane
  • transmembrane position; predictor benchmarked on soluble proteins

This variant sits in the transmembrane band. The stability value was computed with a predictor benchmarked on water-soluble proteins. Published benchmarks of ddG predictors on membrane proteins report correlation below 0.4. Treat the magnitude as unreliable and the sign as weak evidence only.

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 WFS1-related diabetes (autosomal dominant); 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.

  • WFS1-related diabetesautosomal dominantsubmitted as: Monogenic diabetes
  • Wolfram syndrome (classic)autosomal recessive · OMIM 222300submitted as: Wolfram syndrome 1
  • 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 0.0053% (4 of 74,950 alleles), 12.3x 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: SER631 (2.5 Å), VAL633 (2.5 Å), ARG629 (3.7 Å — R629W/Q neighbors!). TM10 start, adjacent to R629 multi-variant region. The Atlas's neighbor extraction surfaces this variant's contacts.

Druggability Assessment

Cat 3/4 — see structural prose. AlphaMissense below threshold (AM under-call class) but mechanism is structurally clear from neighbor analysis. Therapeutic strategy: site-directed at the contacts identified above.

Why this matters

TM10 start adjacent to R629 cluster.
