Is ACADS p.Val84Met (c.250G>A) pathogenic?

ACADS p.Val84Met (c.250G>A) is classified Uncertain significance in ACADS (ClinVar, Multiple submitters, 2 submitters; last evaluated 2026-01-16). AlphaMissense: ambiguous (0.3953); Very rare (popmax 0.00263%, nfe); Associated with short chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency.

What condition is associated with ACADS p.Val84Met (c.250G>A)?

ACADS p.Val84Met (c.250G>A) is associated with short chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (ClinVar).

How common is ACADS p.Val84Met (c.250G>A) in the general population?

ACADS p.Val84Met (c.250G>A) is very rare (popmax 0.00263%, nfe) (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.Val84Met (c.250G>A)?

AlphaMissense predicts ambiguous (score 0.3953) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

Remaining individuals shows a higher raw frequency than the grpmax group above it. gnomAD excludes bottlenecked groups — Finnish, Ashkenazi Jewish, Amish and “Remaining individuals” — from grpmax, because founder effects make their frequencies unrepresentative for filtering. The table is sorted by frequency, so an excluded group can sit above the grpmax row.

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.
