Is BTD p.Leu510= (c.1530G>A) pathogenic?

BTD p.Leu510= (c.1530G>A) is classified Likely benign in BTD (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2023-11-29). Ultra-rare (popmax 0.0107%, afr); Associated with biotinidase deficiency.

What condition is associated with BTD p.Leu510= (c.1530G>A)?

BTD p.Leu510= (c.1530G>A) is associated with biotinidase deficiency (ClinVar).

How common is BTD p.Leu510= (c.1530G>A) in the general population?

BTD p.Leu510= (c.1530G>A) is ultra-rare (popmax 0.0107%, afr) (gnomAD).

How is Biotinidase deficiency 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.
