What condition is associated with ABCA3 p.Arg1095Gln (c.3284G>A)?

ABCA3 p.Arg1095Gln (c.3284G>A) is associated with hereditary pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (ClinVar).

How common is ABCA3 p.Arg1095Gln (c.3284G>A) in the general population?

ABCA3 p.Arg1095Gln (c.3284G>A) is ultra-rare (popmax 0.0342%, eas) (gnomAD).

How is Hereditary pulmonary alveolar proteinosis inherited?

Typically Autosomal recessive (Orphanet). A genetic counselor can assess individual risk for a family.

What do computational predictors say about ABCA3 p.Arg1095Gln (c.3284G>A)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.0832) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

ClinVar classifies this uncertain; the computational predictors unanimously lean tolerated — a triage signal, not a reclassification

AlphaMissense carries the ACMG weight for missense; REVEL and SaProt are independent agreement signals.

Rarity supports pathogenicity (ACMG PM2); frequency above a disease-specific BA1/BS1 threshold argues against it. A variant frequent in one ancestry group can be near-absent in others, so a single global figure can mislead.
