Is AK2 p.Asn157Lys (c.471C>G) pathogenic?

AK2 p.Asn157Lys (c.471C>G) is classified Uncertain significance in AK2 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2021-09-01). AlphaMissense: ambiguous (0.3795); Very rare (popmax 0.00668%, afr); Associated with reticular dysgenesis.

What condition is associated with AK2 p.Asn157Lys (c.471C>G)?

AK2 p.Asn157Lys (c.471C>G) is associated with reticular dysgenesis (ClinVar).

How common is AK2 p.Asn157Lys (c.471C>G) in the general population?

AK2 p.Asn157Lys (c.471C>G) is very rare (popmax 0.00668%, afr) (gnomAD).

How is Reticular dysgenesis inherited?

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

What do computational predictors say about AK2 p.Asn157Lys (c.471C>G)?

AlphaMissense predicts ambiguous (score 0.3795) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

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.
