GLA p.Ser235Phe (c.704C>T) is classified Pathogenic in GLA (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2026-09-08). AlphaMissense: ambiguous (0.5027); Absent from gnomAD v4.1; Associated with Fabry disease.

What condition is associated with GLA p.Ser235Phe (c.704C>T)?

GLA p.Ser235Phe (c.704C>T) is associated with Fabry disease (ClinVar).

How common is GLA p.Ser235Phe (c.704C>T) in the general population?

GLA p.Ser235Phe (c.704C>T) is absent from gnomAD v4.1 (gnomAD).

How is Fabry disease inherited?

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

What do computational predictors say about GLA p.Ser235Phe (c.704C>T)?

AlphaMissense predicts ambiguous (score 0.5027) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.
