Is DAG1 p.Ser77Pro (c.229T>C) pathogenic?

DAG1 p.Ser77Pro (c.229T>C) is classified Uncertain significance in DAG1 (ClinVar, Multiple submitters, 2 submitters; last evaluated 2023-11-21). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.1159); Very rare (popmax 0.00133%, afr); Associated with muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (congenital with brain and eye anomalies), type A9.

How common is DAG1 p.Ser77Pro (c.229T>C) in the general population?

DAG1 p.Ser77Pro (c.229T>C) is very rare (popmax 0.00133%, afr) (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.Ser77Pro (c.229T>C)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.1159) — 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.
