DCTD p.Phe24Leu (c.72C>G) is classified Uncertain significance in DCTD (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2024-01-29). AlphaMissense: likely pathogenic (0.9424); Very rare (popmax 0.00668%, eas).

How common is DCTD p.Phe24Leu (c.72C>G) in the general population?

DCTD p.Phe24Leu (c.72C>G) is very rare (popmax 0.00668%, eas) (gnomAD).

What do computational predictors say about DCTD p.Phe24Leu (c.72C>G)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely pathogenic (score 0.9424) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

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.
