What condition is associated with DPYD p.Asp213= (c.639C>T)?

DPYD p.Asp213= (c.639C>T) is associated with dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase deficiency (ClinVar).

How common is DPYD p.Asp213= (c.639C>T) in the general population?

DPYD p.Asp213= (c.639C>T) is rare (popmax 0.368%, eas) (gnomAD).

How is Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase deficiency 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.
