Is AMPD2 p.Ala51Val (c.152C>T) pathogenic?

AMPD2 p.Ala51Val (c.152C>T) is classified Uncertain significance in AMPD2 (ClinVar, Multiple submitters, 2 submitters; last evaluated 2025-08-28). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.0752); Very rare (popmax 0.000254%, nfe); Associated with hereditary spastic paraplegia 63.

What condition is associated with AMPD2 p.Ala51Val (c.152C>T)?

AMPD2 p.Ala51Val (c.152C>T) is associated with hereditary spastic paraplegia 63, pontocerebellar hypoplasia type 9 (ClinVar).

How common is AMPD2 p.Ala51Val (c.152C>T) in the general population?

AMPD2 p.Ala51Val (c.152C>T) is very rare (popmax 0.000254%, nfe) (gnomAD).

How is Autosomal recessive spastic paraplegia type 63 inherited?

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

What do computational predictors say about AMPD2 p.Ala51Val (c.152C>T)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.0752) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

ClinVar classifies this uncertain; the computational predictors unanimously lean tolerated — 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 A105V vs ClinVar A51V) — verify the residue.

Remaining individuals shows a higher raw frequency than the grpmax group above it. gnomAD excludes bottlenecked groups — Finnish, Ashkenazi Jewish, Amish and “Remaining individuals” — from grpmax, because founder effects make their frequencies unrepresentative for filtering. The table is sorted by frequency, so an excluded group can sit above the grpmax row.

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.
