Is IRF7 p.Pro207Arg (c.620C>G) pathogenic?

IRF7 p.Pro207Arg (c.620C>G) is classified Uncertain significance in IRF7 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2020-12-27). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.0868); Very rare (popmax 0.000254%, nfe); Associated with immunodeficiency 39.

What condition is associated with IRF7 p.Pro207Arg (c.620C>G)?

IRF7 p.Pro207Arg (c.620C>G) is associated with immunodeficiency 39 (ClinVar).

How common is IRF7 p.Pro207Arg (c.620C>G) in the general population?

IRF7 p.Pro207Arg (c.620C>G) is very rare (popmax 0.000254%, nfe) (gnomAD).

What do computational predictors say about IRF7 p.Pro207Arg (c.620C>G)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.0868) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

IRF7 p.Pro207Arg

Q: How is Predisposition to severe viral infection due to IRF7 deficiency inherited?

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

REVEL	0.302	indeterminate
SaProt	LLR -7.94	tolerated
⇒ AlphaMissense and SaProt both call this tolerated; REVEL is indeterminate.

ClinVar classifies this uncertain; the computational predictors unanimously lean tolerated — a triage signal, not a reclassification

AlphaMissense carries the ACMG weight for missense; REVEL and SaProt are independent agreement signals.

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.
