Is DDOST p.Ala260= (c.780G>A) pathogenic?

DDOST p.Ala260= (c.780G>A) is classified Likely benign in DDOST (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2024-07-20). Very rare (popmax 0.00488%, eas); Associated with DDOST-congenital disorder of glycosylation.

What condition is associated with DDOST p.Ala260= (c.780G>A)?

DDOST p.Ala260= (c.780G>A) is associated with DDOST-congenital disorder of glycosylation (ClinVar).

How common is DDOST p.Ala260= (c.780G>A) in the general population?

DDOST p.Ala260= (c.780G>A) is very rare (popmax 0.00488%, eas) (gnomAD).

How is DDOST-CDG 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.
