Is CFL2 p.Asp86Asn (c.256G>A) pathogenic?

CFL2 p.Asp86Asn (c.256G>A) is classified Uncertain significance in CFL2 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2022-02-19). AlphaMissense: likely pathogenic (0.9982); Very rare (popmax 0.000763%, nfe); Associated with nemaline myopathy 7.

What condition is associated with CFL2 p.Asp86Asn (c.256G>A)?

CFL2 p.Asp86Asn (c.256G>A) is associated with nemaline myopathy 7 (ClinVar).

How common is CFL2 p.Asp86Asn (c.256G>A) in the general population?

CFL2 p.Asp86Asn (c.256G>A) is very rare (popmax 0.000763%, nfe) (gnomAD).

How is Typical nemaline myopathy inherited?

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

What do computational predictors say about CFL2 p.Asp86Asn (c.256G>A)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely pathogenic (score 0.9982) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

ClinVar classifies this uncertain; the computational predictors unanimously lean damaging — 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.
