What condition is associated with BAP1 p.Lys275fs (c.824del)?

BAP1 p.Lys275fs (c.824del) is associated with BAP1-related tumor predisposition syndrome, hereditary neoplastic syndrome (ClinVar).

How common is BAP1 p.Lys275fs (c.824del) in the general population?

BAP1 p.Lys275fs (c.824del) is very rare (popmax 0.00133%, afr) (gnomAD).

How is BAP1-related tumor predisposition syndrome inherited?

Typically Autosomal dominant (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.
