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 Uncertain significance for Wolfram syndrome (classic) (autosomal recessive, OMIM 222300). Classic Wolfram syndrome is recessive: a single copy does not produce it, and this classification says nothing about a carrier's own risk.

  • Wolfram syndrome (classic)autosomal recessive · OMIM 222300submitted as: Wolfram syndrome 1
  • 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: 2★ multiple submitters, no conflicts. ClinVar "conditions" is the union of all submissions; 0–1★ entries are submitted conditions, not documented phenotypes.

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

Uncertain significance — for Wolfram syndrome (classic) (autosomal recessive, OMIM 222300)

ClinVar classifies this variant as Uncertain significance for Wolfram syndrome (classic) (autosomal recessive, OMIM 222300). Classic Wolfram syndrome is recessive: a single copy does not produce it, and this classification says nothing about a carrier's own risk.
