Is CYBB p.Thr522Ile (c.1565C>T) pathogenic?

CYBB p.Thr522Ile (c.1565C>T) is classified Uncertain significance in CYBB (ClinVar, Multiple submitters, 4 submitters; last evaluated 2025-07-15). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.117); Very rare (popmax 0.00592%, eas); Associated with granulomatous disease, chronic, X-linked.

What condition is associated with CYBB p.Thr522Ile (c.1565C>T)?

CYBB p.Thr522Ile (c.1565C>T) is associated with granulomatous disease, chronic, X-linked (ClinVar).

How common is CYBB p.Thr522Ile (c.1565C>T) in the general population?

CYBB p.Thr522Ile (c.1565C>T) is very rare (popmax 0.00592%, eas) (gnomAD).

How is Chronic granulomatous disease inherited?

Typically Autosomal recessive, X-linked recessive (Orphanet). A genetic counselor can assess individual risk for a family.

What do computational predictors say about CYBB p.Thr522Ile (c.1565C>T)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.117) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

ClinVar classifies this uncertain; the computational predictors unanimously lean tolerated — a triage signal, not a reclassification

AlphaMissense carries the ACMG weight for missense; REVEL and SaProt are independent agreement signals.

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.
