Is COL6A2 p.Tyr628= (c.1884C>T) pathogenic?

COL6A2 p.Tyr628= (c.1884C>T) is classified Benign/Likely benign in COL6A2 (ClinVar, Multiple submitters, 2 submitters; last evaluated 2025-12-10). Very rare (popmax 0.00933%, afr); Associated with Bethlem myopathy 1A.

What condition is associated with COL6A2 p.Tyr628= (c.1884C>T)?

COL6A2 p.Tyr628= (c.1884C>T) is associated with Bethlem myopathy 1A (ClinVar).

How common is COL6A2 p.Tyr628= (c.1884C>T) in the general population?

COL6A2 p.Tyr628= (c.1884C>T) is very rare (popmax 0.00933%, afr) (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.
