Is MLYCD p.Leu112= (c.334C>T) pathogenic?

MLYCD p.Leu112= (c.334C>T) is classified Likely benign in MLYCD (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2023-05-23). Ultra-rare (popmax 0.0183%, mid); Associated with malonic aciduria.

What condition is associated with MLYCD p.Leu112= (c.334C>T)?

MLYCD p.Leu112= (c.334C>T) is associated with malonic aciduria (ClinVar).

How common is MLYCD p.Leu112= (c.334C>T) in the general population?

MLYCD p.Leu112= (c.334C>T) is ultra-rare (popmax 0.0183%, mid) (gnomAD).

How is Malonic aciduria 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.
