Is CPS1 p.Ser848= (c.2544C>T) pathogenic?

CPS1 p.Ser848= (c.2544C>T) is classified Likely benign in CPS1 (ClinVar, Multiple submitters, 2 submitters; last evaluated 2026-01-14). Ultra-rare (popmax 0.0256%, nfe); Associated with carbamoyl phosphate synthetase I deficiency disease.

What condition is associated with CPS1 p.Ser848= (c.2544C>T)?

CPS1 p.Ser848= (c.2544C>T) is associated with carbamoyl phosphate synthetase I deficiency disease (ClinVar).

How common is CPS1 p.Ser848= (c.2544C>T) in the general population?

CPS1 p.Ser848= (c.2544C>T) is ultra-rare (popmax 0.0256%, nfe) (gnomAD).

How is Carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase 1 deficiency inherited?

Typically 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.
