Is ADSL c.701+7A>C pathogenic?

ADSL c.701+7A>C is classified Likely benign in ADSL (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2023-03-29). Very rare (popmax 0.00439%, sas); Associated with adenylosuccinate lyase deficiency.

What condition is associated with ADSL c.701+7A>C?

ADSL c.701+7A>C is associated with adenylosuccinate lyase deficiency (ClinVar).

How common is ADSL c.701+7A>C in the general population?

ADSL c.701+7A>C is very rare (popmax 0.00439%, sas) (gnomAD).

How is Adenylosuccinate lyase 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.
