What condition is associated with PLA2G6 p.Phe190= (c.570C>T)?

PLA2G6 p.Phe190= (c.570C>T) is associated with neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation 2A (ClinVar).

How common is PLA2G6 p.Phe190= (c.570C>T) in the general population?

PLA2G6 p.Phe190= (c.570C>T) is very rare (popmax 0.000508%, nfe) (gnomAD).

How is Infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy 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.
