What condition is associated with COL6A2 p.Pro75= (c.225G>A)?

COL6A2 p.Pro75= (c.225G>A) is associated with Bethlem myopathy 1A (ClinVar).

How common is COL6A2 p.Pro75= (c.225G>A) in the general population?

COL6A2 p.Pro75= (c.225G>A) is very rare (popmax 0.00746%, 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.
