Is OAT p.Asp387His (c.1159G>C) pathogenic?

OAT p.Asp387His (c.1159G>C) is classified Uncertain significance in OAT (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2022-04-04). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.1764); Absent from gnomAD v4.1; Associated with ornithine aminotransferase deficiency.

What condition is associated with OAT p.Asp387His (c.1159G>C)?

OAT p.Asp387His (c.1159G>C) is associated with ornithine aminotransferase deficiency (ClinVar).

How common is OAT p.Asp387His (c.1159G>C) in the general population?

OAT p.Asp387His (c.1159G>C) is absent from gnomAD v4.1 (gnomAD).

How is Gyrate atrophy of choroid and retina inherited?

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

What do computational predictors say about OAT p.Asp387His (c.1159G>C)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.1764) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.
