What condition is associated with CD3E p.Asn154= (c.462T>C)?

CD3E p.Asn154= (c.462T>C) is associated with immunodeficiency 18 (ClinVar).

How common is CD3E p.Asn154= (c.462T>C) in the general population?

CD3E p.Asn154= (c.462T>C) is ultra-rare (popmax 0.056%, afr) (gnomAD).

CD3E p.Asn154=

Q: How is T-B+ severe combined immunodeficiency due to CD3delta/CD3epsilon/CD3zeta 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.
