Is IDS p.Met212Ile (c.636G>A) pathogenic?

IDS p.Met212Ile (c.636G>A) is classified Benign in IDS (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2024-01-25). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.3217); Very rare (popmax 0.00349%, afr); Associated with mucopolysaccharidosis type 2.

What condition is associated with IDS p.Met212Ile (c.636G>A)?

IDS p.Met212Ile (c.636G>A) is associated with mucopolysaccharidosis type 2 (ClinVar).

How common is IDS p.Met212Ile (c.636G>A) in the general population?

IDS p.Met212Ile (c.636G>A) is very rare (popmax 0.00349%, afr) (gnomAD).

How is Mucopolysaccharidosis type 2 inherited?

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

What do computational predictors say about IDS p.Met212Ile (c.636G>A)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.3217) — 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.
