Is GALNS p.Pro92Ser (c.274C>T) pathogenic?

GALNS p.Pro92Ser (c.274C>T) is classified Uncertain significance in GALNS (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2021-02-01). AlphaMissense: likely pathogenic (0.5678); Very rare (popmax 8.48e-05%, nfe); Associated with mucopolysaccharidosis type 4A.

What condition is associated with GALNS p.Pro92Ser (c.274C>T)?

GALNS p.Pro92Ser (c.274C>T) is associated with mucopolysaccharidosis type 4A (ClinVar).

How common is GALNS p.Pro92Ser (c.274C>T) in the general population?

GALNS p.Pro92Ser (c.274C>T) is very rare (popmax 8.48e-05%, nfe) (gnomAD).

How is Mucopolysaccharidosis type 4 inherited?

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

What do computational predictors say about GALNS p.Pro92Ser (c.274C>T)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely pathogenic (score 0.5678) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

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.
