What condition is associated with DNAH8 p.Pro34= (c.102G>A)?

DNAH8 p.Pro34= (c.102G>A) is associated with primary ciliary dyskinesia (ClinVar).

How common is DNAH8 p.Pro34= (c.102G>A) in the general population?

DNAH8 p.Pro34= (c.102G>A) is ultra-rare (popmax 0.011%, sas) (gnomAD).

How is Primary ciliary dyskinesia inherited?

Typically Autosomal dominant, 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.
