Is CACNB2 p.Pro570Ala (c.1708C>G) pathogenic?

CACNB2 p.Pro570Ala (c.1708C>G) is classified Uncertain significance in CACNB2 (ClinVar, Multiple submitters, 5 submitters; last evaluated 2025-11-24). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.0821); Very rare (popmax 0.00619%, nfe); Associated with Brugada syndrome 4.

What condition is associated with CACNB2 p.Pro570Ala (c.1708C>G)?

CACNB2 p.Pro570Ala (c.1708C>G) is associated with Brugada syndrome 4 (ClinVar).

How common is CACNB2 p.Pro570Ala (c.1708C>G) in the general population?

CACNB2 p.Pro570Ala (c.1708C>G) is very rare (popmax 0.00619%, nfe) (gnomAD).

How is Brugada syndrome inherited?

Typically Autosomal dominant, Not applicable (Orphanet). A genetic counselor can assess individual risk for a family.

What do computational predictors say about CACNB2 p.Pro570Ala (c.1708C>G)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.0821) — 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.

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.
