Is DHTKD1 p.Asp177= (c.531C>T) pathogenic?

DHTKD1 p.Asp177= (c.531C>T) is classified Likely benign in DHTKD1 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2023-05-04). Very rare (popmax 0.00268%, afr); Associated with 2-aminoadipic 2-oxoadipic aciduria.

What condition is associated with DHTKD1 p.Asp177= (c.531C>T)?

DHTKD1 p.Asp177= (c.531C>T) is associated with 2-aminoadipic 2-oxoadipic aciduria (ClinVar).

How common is DHTKD1 p.Asp177= (c.531C>T) in the general population?

DHTKD1 p.Asp177= (c.531C>T) is very rare (popmax 0.00268%, afr) (gnomAD).

How is 2-aminoadipic 2-oxoadipic aciduria 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.
