Is LDB3 p.Pro149Ser (c.445C>T) pathogenic?

LDB3 p.Pro149Ser (c.445C>T) is classified Likely benign in LDB3 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2022-04-11). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.0649); Very rare (popmax 8.48e-05%, nfe); Associated with myofibrillar myopathy 4.

What condition is associated with LDB3 p.Pro149Ser (c.445C>T)?

LDB3 p.Pro149Ser (c.445C>T) is associated with myofibrillar myopathy 4 (ClinVar).

How common is LDB3 p.Pro149Ser (c.445C>T) in the general population?

LDB3 p.Pro149Ser (c.445C>T) is very rare (popmax 8.48e-05%, nfe) (gnomAD).

What do computational predictors say about LDB3 p.Pro149Ser (c.445C>T)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.0649) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

LDB3 p.Pro149Ser

Q: How is Late-onset distal myopathy, Markesbery-Griggs type inherited?

Typically Autosomal dominant (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.
