Is PPOX p.Pro27Ala (c.79C>G) pathogenic?

PPOX p.Pro27Ala (c.79C>G) is classified Uncertain significance in PPOX (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2023-05-03). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.068); Very rare (popmax 0.00891%, eas); Associated with Inborn genetic diseases.

What condition is associated with PPOX p.Pro27Ala (c.79C>G)?

PPOX p.Pro27Ala (c.79C>G) is associated with Inborn genetic diseases (ClinVar).

How common is PPOX p.Pro27Ala (c.79C>G) in the general population?

PPOX p.Pro27Ala (c.79C>G) is very rare (popmax 0.00891%, eas) (gnomAD).

What do computational predictors say about PPOX p.Pro27Ala (c.79C>G)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.068) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

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