Is ALDOA p.Val241Met (c.721G>A) pathogenic?

ALDOA p.Val241Met (c.721G>A) is classified Uncertain significance in ALDOA (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2022-02-19). AlphaMissense: likely pathogenic (0.96); Very rare (popmax 0.01%, amr); Associated with glycogen storage disease due to aldolase A deficiency.

What condition is associated with ALDOA p.Val241Met (c.721G>A)?

ALDOA p.Val241Met (c.721G>A) is associated with glycogen storage disease due to aldolase A deficiency (ClinVar).

How common is ALDOA p.Val241Met (c.721G>A) in the general population?

ALDOA p.Val241Met (c.721G>A) is very rare (popmax 0.01%, amr) (gnomAD).

What do computational predictors say about ALDOA p.Val241Met (c.721G>A)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely pathogenic (score 0.96) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

ALDOA p.Val241Met

Q: How is Glycogen storage disease due to aldolase A deficiency inherited?

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

ClinVar classifies this uncertain; the computational predictors unanimously lean damaging — a triage signal, not a reclassification

AlphaMissense carries the ACMG weight for missense; REVEL and SaProt are independent agreement signals.

⚠ Isoform check: AlphaMissense numbered on a different transcript (AM V187M vs ClinVar V241M) — verify the residue.

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.
