Is CALM2 p.Gln144= (c.432A>G) pathogenic?

CALM2 p.Gln144= (c.432A>G) is classified Likely benign in CALM2 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2025-01-21). Very rare (popmax 7.37e-05%); Associated with long QT syndrome 1.

What condition is associated with CALM2 p.Gln144= (c.432A>G)?

CALM2 p.Gln144= (c.432A>G) is associated with long QT syndrome 1 (ClinVar).

How common is CALM2 p.Gln144= (c.432A>G) in the general population?

CALM2 p.Gln144= (c.432A>G) is very rare (popmax 7.37e-05%) (gnomAD).

How is Romano-Ward syndrome inherited?

Typically Autosomal dominant, 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.
