AlphaMissense predicts likely pathogenic (score 0.9999) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

EEF1A2 p.Asp91Tyr

Q: How is Non-specific early-onset epileptic encephalopathy inherited?

Typically Autosomal dominant, Autosomal recessive (Orphanet). A genetic counselor can assess individual risk for a family.
