Is PEX10 p.Pro9fs (c.26del) pathogenic?

PEX10 p.Pro9fs (c.26del) is classified Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic in PEX10 (ClinVar, Multiple submitters, 3 submitters; last evaluated 2025-12-08). Very rare (popmax 0.00157%, sas); Associated with Zellweger spectrum disorders.

What condition is associated with PEX10 p.Pro9fs (c.26del)?

PEX10 p.Pro9fs (c.26del) is associated with Zellweger spectrum disorders, peroxisome biogenesis disorder 6A (Zellweger), peroxisome biogenesis disorder 6B (ClinVar).

How common is PEX10 p.Pro9fs (c.26del) in the general population?

PEX10 p.Pro9fs (c.26del) is very rare (popmax 0.00157%, sas) (gnomAD).

How is Zellweger syndrome 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.
