Is PRDM8 p.Pro669= (c.2007C>T) pathogenic?

PRDM8 p.Pro669= (c.2007C>T) is classified Likely benign in PRDM8 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2024-05-06). Very rare (popmax 0.0099%, sas); Associated with early-onset Lafora body disease.

What condition is associated with PRDM8 p.Pro669= (c.2007C>T)?

PRDM8 p.Pro669= (c.2007C>T) is associated with early-onset Lafora body disease (ClinVar).

How common is PRDM8 p.Pro669= (c.2007C>T) in the general population?

PRDM8 p.Pro669= (c.2007C>T) is very rare (popmax 0.0099%, sas) (gnomAD).

How is PRDM8-related progressive myoclonus epilepsy 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.
