Therapeutic Implication · Silent

No amino-acid change (T799 is unchanged): the codon is altered but the protein sequence is identical to wild-type. No structural, stability or AlphaMissense effect applies. Synonymous variants are typically benign unless they affect splicing or regulatory elements; this one is not adjacent to an exon boundary.

Classified for2★ documented assertion

ClinVar classifies this variant as Benign/Likely benign 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.

  • 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.

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