Is DUSP23 p.Pro68Ser (c.202C>T) pathogenic?

DUSP23 p.Pro68Ser (c.202C>T) is classified Uncertain significance in DUSP23 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2023-01-17). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.2082); Very rare (popmax 0.000698%, nfe).

How common is DUSP23 p.Pro68Ser (c.202C>T) in the general population?

DUSP23 p.Pro68Ser (c.202C>T) is very rare (popmax 0.000698%, nfe) (gnomAD).

What do computational predictors say about DUSP23 p.Pro68Ser (c.202C>T)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.2082) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

Protein change
AlphaMissense	0.2082	likely benign
REVEL	0.401	indeterminate
SaProt	LLR -9.01	tolerated
⇒ AlphaMissense and SaProt both call this tolerated; REVEL makes no call.

ClinVar classifies this uncertain; the computational predictors unanimously lean tolerated — a triage signal, not a reclassification

AlphaMissense carries the ACMG weight for missense; REVEL and SaProt are independent agreement signals.

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.
