UNLABELLED: The aim of the present paper is to describe a novel missense mutation (G107R) of WFS1 gene that was unexpectedly detected, in two siblings from Southern Italy, outside exon 8; a very unusual finding which has previously been reported only twice in Italian patients with Wolfram syndrome (WS). Although in Spanish pedigrees' WFS1 mutations are frequently located in exon 4, this finding is very infrequent in other pedigrees, particularly in Italian patients.
CONCLUSIONS: a) our report of two siblings with one novel WSF1 mutation (G107R) expands the molecular spectrum of WS; b) this is the 3rd report of Italian patients harbouring one mutation outside exon 8 and the 2nd with one mutation in exon 4; c) on the basis of the present observations, and literature data we can infer that mutation locations outside exon 8 do not seem to be clearly associated with peculiar phenotype expressions of WFS1 gene.
