Is BTD p.Thr334= (c.1002G>A) pathogenic?

BTD p.Thr334= (c.1002G>A) is classified Benign/Likely benign in BTD (ClinVar, Multiple submitters, 5 submitters; last evaluated 2026-01-25). Rare (popmax 0.661%, afr); Associated with biotinidase deficiency.

What condition is associated with BTD p.Thr334= (c.1002G>A)?

BTD p.Thr334= (c.1002G>A) is associated with biotinidase deficiency (ClinVar).

How common is BTD p.Thr334= (c.1002G>A) in the general population?

BTD p.Thr334= (c.1002G>A) is rare (popmax 0.661%, 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.
