Is COX20 p.Glu11Asp (c.33G>T) pathogenic?

COX20 p.Glu11Asp (c.33G>T) is classified Uncertain significance in COX20 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2024-03-07). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.1316); Absent from gnomAD v4.1; Associated with mitochondrial complex IV deficiency, nuclear type 11.

What condition is associated with COX20 p.Glu11Asp (c.33G>T)?

COX20 p.Glu11Asp (c.33G>T) is associated with mitochondrial complex IV deficiency, nuclear type 11 (ClinVar).

How common is COX20 p.Glu11Asp (c.33G>T) in the general population?

COX20 p.Glu11Asp (c.33G>T) is absent from gnomAD v4.1 (gnomAD).

How is Isolated cytochrome C oxidase deficiency inherited?

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

What do computational predictors say about COX20 p.Glu11Asp (c.33G>T)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.1316) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

No allele count reported in gnomAD v4.1 (AN 1,272,438). This is missing data, not an absence: the variant may or may not be present in gnomAD. Rarity (ACMG PM2) and BA1/BS1 cannot be assessed for it.
