What condition is associated with ALG9 p.Glu98= (c.294A>G)?

ALG9 p.Glu98= (c.294A>G) is associated with ALG9-congenital disorder of glycosylation (ClinVar).

How common is ALG9 p.Glu98= (c.294A>G) in the general population?

ALG9 p.Glu98= (c.294A>G) is very rare (popmax 0.00133%, afr) (gnomAD).

How is ALG9-CDG 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.
