Therapeutic Implication · S3

SpliceAI predicts little splicing disruption at this donor (5') site (max ΔS 0.00 < 0.2; acceptor-gain 0.00, acceptor-loss 0.00, donor-gain 0.00, donor-loss 0.00). The variant may be tolerated or act through a weak/again-tissue-specific mechanism; wet-lab RNA validation is the arbiter before any therapeutic call.

Classified for2★ documented assertion

ClinVar classifies this variant as Benign, but does not state what it is classified for. ClinVar records no condition for this variant. A classification without a phenotype and an inheritance mode cannot be read as a statement about Wolfram syndrome risk or severity.

  • 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.

Highest-frequency population
South Asian · AF 0.157%

Highest in South Asian: AF 0.157% (143 of 91,000 alleles), 15.2x the global figure. The global AF describes the general population, not the at-risk group.

2 homozygotes reported in gnomAD v4 (2 South Asian). 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.

Schema category: S3 — Minimal predicted splicing impact (SpliceAI ΔS 0.00)

SpliceAI predicts little splicing disruption at this donor (5') site (max ΔS 0.00 < 0.2; acceptor-gain 0.00, acceptor-loss 0.00, donor-gain 0.00, donor-loss 0.00). The variant may be tolerated or act through a weak/again-tissue-specific mechanism; wet-lab RNA validation is the arbiter before any therapeutic call.
