Is FERMT3 p.Ser307= (c.921C>T) pathogenic?

FERMT3 p.Ser307= (c.921C>T) is classified Benign/Likely benign in FERMT3 (ClinVar, Multiple submitters, 3 submitters; last evaluated 2025-11-19). Rare (popmax 0.376%, afr); Associated with leukocyte adhesion deficiency 3.

What condition is associated with FERMT3 p.Ser307= (c.921C>T)?

FERMT3 p.Ser307= (c.921C>T) is associated with leukocyte adhesion deficiency 3 (ClinVar).

How common is FERMT3 p.Ser307= (c.921C>T) in the general population?

FERMT3 p.Ser307= (c.921C>T) is rare (popmax 0.376%, afr) (gnomAD).

How is Leukocyte adhesion 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.
