What condition is associated with GNPTAB p.Asp962= (c.2886C>T)?

GNPTAB p.Asp962= (c.2886C>T) is associated with mucolipidosis type II, mucolipidosis type III, alpha/beta (ClinVar).

How common is GNPTAB p.Asp962= (c.2886C>T) in the general population?

GNPTAB p.Asp962= (c.2886C>T) is ultra-rare (popmax 0.0246%, nfe) (gnomAD).

How is Mucolipidosis type II 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.
