Is ACADS p.Lys51Arg (c.152A>G) pathogenic?

ACADS p.Lys51Arg (c.152A>G) is classified Uncertain significance in ACADS (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2024-02-24). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.0802); Very rare (popmax 0.00133%, afr); Associated with short chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency.

What condition is associated with ACADS p.Lys51Arg (c.152A>G)?

ACADS p.Lys51Arg (c.152A>G) is associated with short chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (ClinVar).

How common is ACADS p.Lys51Arg (c.152A>G) in the general population?

ACADS p.Lys51Arg (c.152A>G) is very rare (popmax 0.00133%, afr) (gnomAD).

How is Short chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency inherited?

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

What do computational predictors say about ACADS p.Lys51Arg (c.152A>G)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.0802) — 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.
