Is CTSA p.Tyr345= (c.1035C>T) pathogenic?

CTSA p.Tyr345= (c.1035C>T) is classified Likely benign in CTSA (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2024-08-13). Very rare (popmax 0.00667%, amr); Associated with galactosialidosis.

What condition is associated with CTSA p.Tyr345= (c.1035C>T)?

CTSA p.Tyr345= (c.1035C>T) is associated with galactosialidosis (ClinVar).

How common is CTSA p.Tyr345= (c.1035C>T) in the general population?

CTSA p.Tyr345= (c.1035C>T) is very rare (popmax 0.00667%, amr) (gnomAD).

How is Galactosialidosis 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.
