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.

Not observed in ~730k individuals — consistent with a rare allele (ACMG PM2_supporting).

Classified for0★ unverified submission

ClinVar classifies this variant as Uncertain significance for Optic atrophy / optic neuropathy (autosomal dominant). These are dominant WFS1-related disorders and are clinically distinct from classic recessive Wolfram syndrome. This classification is not a statement about Wolfram syndrome severity.

  • No assertion criteria were provided (0★). Treat the conditions above as unverified submissions, 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: 0★ no assertion criteria provided. ClinVar "conditions" is the union of all submissions; 0–1★ entries are submitted conditions, not documented phenotypes.

Population frequency
Global (all ancestries)
Absent from gnomAD v4
Homozygotes
Not available

No population breakdown — the variant is absent from gnomAD v4, so no ancestry group has an observed frequency.

No homozygotes — the variant is absent from gnomAD v4 altogether.

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.
