Is COL6A2 p.Pro932= (c.2796G>A) pathogenic?

COL6A2 p.Pro932= (c.2796G>A) is classified Benign/Likely benign in COL6A2 (ClinVar, Multiple submitters, 5 submitters; last evaluated 2025-12-29). Ultra-rare (popmax 0.0253%, nfe); Associated with Bethlem myopathy 1A.

What condition is associated with COL6A2 p.Pro932= (c.2796G>A)?

COL6A2 p.Pro932= (c.2796G>A) is associated with Bethlem myopathy 1A (ClinVar).

How common is COL6A2 p.Pro932= (c.2796G>A) in the general population?

COL6A2 p.Pro932= (c.2796G>A) is ultra-rare (popmax 0.0253%, nfe) (gnomAD).

How is Bethlem muscular dystrophy inherited?

Typically Autosomal dominant, Autosomal recessive (Orphanet). A genetic counselor can assess individual risk for a family.

Finnish shows a higher raw frequency than the grpmax group above it. gnomAD excludes bottlenecked groups — Finnish, Ashkenazi Jewish, Amish and “Remaining individuals” — from grpmax, because founder effects make their frequencies unrepresentative for filtering. The table is sorted by frequency, so an excluded group can sit above the grpmax row.

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.
