Is CHD2 p.Arg1763His (c.5288G>A) pathogenic?

CHD2 p.Arg1763His (c.5288G>A) is classified Uncertain significance in CHD2 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2024-12-16). AlphaMissense: ambiguous (0.351); Very rare (popmax 0.000254%, nfe); Associated with developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 94.

What condition is associated with CHD2 p.Arg1763His (c.5288G>A)?

CHD2 p.Arg1763His (c.5288G>A) is associated with developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 94 (ClinVar).

How common is CHD2 p.Arg1763His (c.5288G>A) in the general population?

CHD2 p.Arg1763His (c.5288G>A) is very rare (popmax 0.000254%, nfe) (gnomAD).

How is Lennox-Gastaut syndrome inherited?

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

What do computational predictors say about CHD2 p.Arg1763His (c.5288G>A)?

AlphaMissense predicts ambiguous (score 0.351) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

Ashkenazi Jewish shows a higher raw frequency than the grpmax group above it. gnomAD excludes bottlenecked groups — Finnish, Ashkenazi Jewish, Amish and “Remaining individuals” — from grpmax, because founder effects make their frequencies unrepresentative for filtering. The table is sorted by frequency, so an excluded group can sit above the grpmax row.

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.
