Is GMPPB p.Val280= (c.840C>G) pathogenic?

GMPPB p.Val280= (c.840C>G) is classified Likely benign in GMPPB (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2022-03-09). Absent from gnomAD v4.1; Associated with muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (congenital with brain and eye anomalies), type A14.

What condition is associated with GMPPB p.Val280= (c.840C>G)?

GMPPB p.Val280= (c.840C>G) is associated with muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (congenital with brain and eye anomalies), type A14, muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (congenital with intellectual disability), type B14, autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2T (ClinVar).

How common is GMPPB p.Val280= (c.840C>G) in the general population?

GMPPB p.Val280= (c.840C>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.
