Is COASY p.Ala137= (c.411C>T) pathogenic?

COASY p.Ala137= (c.411C>T) is classified Likely benign in COASY (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2022-10-20). Very rare (popmax 0.0028%, nfe); Associated with neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation 6.

What condition is associated with COASY p.Ala137= (c.411C>T)?

COASY p.Ala137= (c.411C>T) is associated with neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation 6 (ClinVar).

How common is COASY p.Ala137= (c.411C>T) in the general population?

COASY p.Ala137= (c.411C>T) is very rare (popmax 0.0028%, nfe) (gnomAD).

How is COASY protein-associated neurodegeneration 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.
