What condition is associated with COL4A4 p.Pro691= (c.2073A>G)?

COL4A4 p.Pro691= (c.2073A>G) is associated with autosomal recessive Alport syndrome, hematuria, benign familial (ClinVar).

How common is COL4A4 p.Pro691= (c.2073A>G) in the general population?

COL4A4 p.Pro691= (c.2073A>G) is ultra-rare (popmax 0.0496%, afr) (gnomAD).

How is Alport syndrome inherited?

Typically Autosomal dominant, 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.
