Is PRKCD p.Cys247= (c.741C>T) pathogenic?

PRKCD p.Cys247= (c.741C>T) is classified Benign in PRKCD (ClinVar, Multiple submitters, 2 submitters; last evaluated 2026-02-01). Low-frequency (popmax 2.33%, afr); Associated with autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome, type III caused by mutation in PRKCD.

How common is PRKCD p.Cys247= (c.741C>T) in the general population?

PRKCD p.Cys247= (c.741C>T) is low-frequency (popmax 2.33%, afr) (gnomAD).

PRKCD p.Cys247=

Q: What condition is associated with PRKCD p.Cys247= (c.741C>T)?

PRKCD p.Cys247= (c.741C>T) is associated with autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome, type III caused by mutation in PRKCD (ClinVar).

Q: How is EBV-induced lymphoproliferative disease due to PRKCD deficiency 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.
