Is CYBA p.Lys166= (c.498G>A) pathogenic?

CYBA p.Lys166= (c.498G>A) is classified Likely benign in CYBA (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2024-02-07). Very rare (popmax 0.00227%, nfe); Associated with granulomatous disease, chronic, autosomal recessive, cytochrome b-negative.

What condition is associated with CYBA p.Lys166= (c.498G>A)?

CYBA p.Lys166= (c.498G>A) is associated with granulomatous disease, chronic, autosomal recessive, cytochrome b-negative (ClinVar).

How common is CYBA p.Lys166= (c.498G>A) in the general population?

CYBA p.Lys166= (c.498G>A) is very rare (popmax 0.00227%, nfe) (gnomAD).

How is Chronic granulomatous disease inherited?

Typically Autosomal recessive, X-linked 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.
