Is ACOX1 p.Lys488= (c.1464A>G) pathogenic?

ACOX1 p.Lys488= (c.1464A>G) is classified Likely benign in ACOX1 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2021-12-21). Very rare (popmax 0.000339%, nfe); Associated with peroxisomal acyl-CoA oxidase deficiency.

What condition is associated with ACOX1 p.Lys488= (c.1464A>G)?

ACOX1 p.Lys488= (c.1464A>G) is associated with peroxisomal acyl-CoA oxidase deficiency (ClinVar).

How common is ACOX1 p.Lys488= (c.1464A>G) in the general population?

ACOX1 p.Lys488= (c.1464A>G) is very rare (popmax 0.000339%, nfe) (gnomAD).

How is Peroxisomal acyl-CoA oxidase deficiency inherited?

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

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.
