Is CHD2 p.Arg92Trp (c.274C>T) pathogenic?

CHD2 p.Arg92Trp (c.274C>T) is classified Uncertain significance in CHD2 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2022-09-27). AlphaMissense: likely pathogenic (0.6265); Very rare (popmax 0.00223%, eas); Associated with developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 94.

What condition is associated with CHD2 p.Arg92Trp (c.274C>T)?

CHD2 p.Arg92Trp (c.274C>T) is associated with developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 94 (ClinVar).

How common is CHD2 p.Arg92Trp (c.274C>T) in the general population?

CHD2 p.Arg92Trp (c.274C>T) is very rare (popmax 0.00223%, eas) (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.Arg92Trp (c.274C>T)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely pathogenic (score 0.6265) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

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.
