Is CDAN1 p.Pro186Arg (c.557C>G) pathogenic?

CDAN1 p.Pro186Arg (c.557C>G) is classified Uncertain significance in CDAN1 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2022-06-06). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.0922); Very rare (popmax 0.00195%, nfe); Associated with anemia, congenital dyserythropoietic, type 1a.

What condition is associated with CDAN1 p.Pro186Arg (c.557C>G)?

CDAN1 p.Pro186Arg (c.557C>G) is associated with anemia, congenital dyserythropoietic, type 1a (ClinVar).

How common is CDAN1 p.Pro186Arg (c.557C>G) in the general population?

CDAN1 p.Pro186Arg (c.557C>G) is very rare (popmax 0.00195%, nfe) (gnomAD).

How is Congenital dyserythropoietic anemia type I inherited?

Typically Autosomal recessive (Orphanet). A genetic counselor can assess individual risk for a family.

What do computational predictors say about CDAN1 p.Pro186Arg (c.557C>G)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.0922) — 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.
