COL6A2 p.Gly950= (c.2850C>T) is classified Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity in COL6A2 (ClinVar, Conflicting submitters, 4 submitters; last evaluated 2026-05-01). Ultra-rare (popmax 0.0179%, nfe); Associated with Bethlem myopathy 1A.

What condition is associated with COL6A2 p.Gly950= (c.2850C>T)?

COL6A2 p.Gly950= (c.2850C>T) is associated with Bethlem myopathy 1A (ClinVar).

How common is COL6A2 p.Gly950= (c.2850C>T) in the general population?

COL6A2 p.Gly950= (c.2850C>T) is ultra-rare (popmax 0.0179%, nfe) (gnomAD).

How is Bethlem muscular dystrophy 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.
