Is ETFA p.Arg3Pro (c.8G>C) pathogenic?

ETFA p.Arg3Pro (c.8G>C) is classified Uncertain significance in ETFA (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2021-04-04). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.194); Absent from gnomAD v4.1; Associated with multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency.

What condition is associated with ETFA p.Arg3Pro (c.8G>C)?

ETFA p.Arg3Pro (c.8G>C) is associated with multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (ClinVar).

How common is ETFA p.Arg3Pro (c.8G>C) in the general population?

ETFA p.Arg3Pro (c.8G>C) is absent from gnomAD v4.1 (gnomAD).

How is Multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency inherited?

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

What do computational predictors say about ETFA p.Arg3Pro (c.8G>C)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.194) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

No allele count reported in gnomAD v4.1 (AN 1,564,178). This is missing data, not an absence: the variant may or may not be present in gnomAD. Rarity (ACMG PM2) and BA1/BS1 cannot be assessed for it.
