Is FKRP p.Pro247Arg (c.740C>G) pathogenic?

FKRP p.Pro247Arg (c.740C>G) is classified Uncertain significance in FKRP (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2021-08-30). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.3168); Absent from gnomAD v4.1; Associated with muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy, type A.

What condition is associated with FKRP p.Pro247Arg (c.740C>G)?

FKRP p.Pro247Arg (c.740C>G) is associated with muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy, type A (ClinVar).

How common is FKRP p.Pro247Arg (c.740C>G) in the general population?

FKRP p.Pro247Arg (c.740C>G) is absent from gnomAD v4.1 (gnomAD).

How is Walker-Warburg syndrome inherited?

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

What do computational predictors say about FKRP p.Pro247Arg (c.740C>G)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.3168) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical 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.
