Is NPHP4 p.Pro607Leu (c.1820C>T) pathogenic?

NPHP4 p.Pro607Leu (c.1820C>T) is classified Uncertain significance in NPHP4 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2022-03-11). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.1982); Very rare (popmax 8.49e-05%, nfe); Associated with nephronophthisis.

What condition is associated with NPHP4 p.Pro607Leu (c.1820C>T)?

NPHP4 p.Pro607Leu (c.1820C>T) is associated with nephronophthisis (ClinVar).

How common is NPHP4 p.Pro607Leu (c.1820C>T) in the general population?

NPHP4 p.Pro607Leu (c.1820C>T) is very rare (popmax 8.49e-05%, nfe) (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 NPHP4 p.Pro607Leu (c.1820C>T)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.1982) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

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.
