Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV000285512 SCV000450646 pathogenic WFS1-Related Spectrum Disorders 2016-09-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The WFS1 c.1839G>A (p.Trp613Ter) stop-gained variant has been reported in four studies in which it is found in a compound heterozygous state with a second variant in four individuals with Wolfram syndrome (Cryns et al. 2003; Marshall et al. 2013; Chaussenot et al. 2015; Bischoff et al. 2015). Of note, five additional affected individuals were compound heterozygous for a different nucleotide change, c.1838G>A, that results in the same stop-gained variant at codon 613 (p.Trp613Ter). The p.Trp613Ter variant was absent from a total of 100 controls and is reported at a frequency of 0.00012 in the European American population of the Exome Sequencing Project, but this is based on only one allele in a region of good sequence coverage so it is presumed to be rare. Based on the potential impact of stop-gained variants and the evidence from the literature, the p.Trp613Ter variant is classified as pathogenic for WFS1-related spectrum disorders. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV001861234 SCV002238236 pathogenic not provided 2022-10-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 349320). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with Wolfram syndrome (PMID: 12955714, 23981289, 28559085). This variant is present in population databases (rs143064649, gnomAD 0.003%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp613*) in the WFS1 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 278 amino acid(s) of the WFS1 protein.
