Is DAG1 p.Pro488Ala (c.1462C>G) pathogenic?

DAG1 p.Pro488Ala (c.1462C>G) is classified Uncertain significance in DAG1 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2020-03-18). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.0637); Absent from gnomAD v4.1; Associated with muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (congenital with brain and eye anomalies), type A9.

How common is DAG1 p.Pro488Ala (c.1462C>G) in the general population?

DAG1 p.Pro488Ala (c.1462C>G) is absent from gnomAD v4.1 (gnomAD).

How is Walker-Warburg syndrome inherited?

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

What do computational predictors say about DAG1 p.Pro488Ala (c.1462C>G)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.0637) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.
