Is NPHP3 p.Ala1011Val (c.3032C>T) pathogenic?

NPHP3 p.Ala1011Val (c.3032C>T) is classified Uncertain significance in NPHP3 (ClinVar, Multiple submitters, 7 submitters; last evaluated 2026-02-17). AlphaMissense: likely pathogenic (0.7938); Ultra-rare (popmax 0.02%, amr); Associated with nephronophthisis.

What condition is associated with NPHP3 p.Ala1011Val (c.3032C>T)?

NPHP3 p.Ala1011Val (c.3032C>T) is associated with nephronophthisis, renal-hepatic-pancreatic dysplasia 1, NPHP3-related Meckel-like syndrome (ClinVar).

How common is NPHP3 p.Ala1011Val (c.3032C>T) in the general population?

NPHP3 p.Ala1011Val (c.3032C>T) is ultra-rare (popmax 0.02%, amr) (gnomAD).

How is Nephronophthisis inherited?

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

What do computational predictors say about NPHP3 p.Ala1011Val (c.3032C>T)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely pathogenic (score 0.7938) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

ClinVar classifies this uncertain; the computational predictors unanimously lean damaging — 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.
