Is DAG1 p.Pro519= (c.1557G>A) pathogenic?

DAG1 p.Pro519= (c.1557G>A) is classified Likely benign in DAG1 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2025-05-17). Ultra-rare (popmax 0.0165%, mid); Associated with muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (congenital with brain and eye anomalies), type A9.

How common is DAG1 p.Pro519= (c.1557G>A) in the general population?

DAG1 p.Pro519= (c.1557G>A) is ultra-rare (popmax 0.0165%, mid) (gnomAD).

How is Walker-Warburg syndrome 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.
