What condition is associated with IQCB1 p.Pro283= (c.849A>G)?

IQCB1 p.Pro283= (c.849A>G) is associated with nephronophthisis (ClinVar).

How common is IQCB1 p.Pro283= (c.849A>G) in the general population?

IQCB1 p.Pro283= (c.849A>G) is very rare (popmax 0.00134%, afr) (gnomAD).

How is Nephronophthisis 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.
