Is EMD p.Pro25Arg (c.74C>G) pathogenic?

EMD p.Pro25Arg (c.74C>G) is classified Uncertain significance in EMD (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2024-04-04). AlphaMissense: likely pathogenic (0.7268); Absent from gnomAD v4.1; Associated with X-linked Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy.

What condition is associated with EMD p.Pro25Arg (c.74C>G)?

EMD p.Pro25Arg (c.74C>G) is associated with X-linked Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (ClinVar).

How common is EMD p.Pro25Arg (c.74C>G) in the general population?

EMD p.Pro25Arg (c.74C>G) is absent from gnomAD v4.1 (gnomAD).

How is Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy inherited?

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

What do computational predictors say about EMD p.Pro25Arg (c.74C>G)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely pathogenic (score 0.7268) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

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

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