Is RAG1 p.Pro79= (c.237A>G) pathogenic?

RAG1 p.Pro79= (c.237A>G) is classified Likely benign in RAG1 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2025-03-01). Very rare (popmax 8.47e-05%, nfe); Associated with combined immunodeficiency with skin granulomas.

What condition is associated with RAG1 p.Pro79= (c.237A>G)?

RAG1 p.Pro79= (c.237A>G) is associated with combined immunodeficiency with skin granulomas, severe combined immunodeficiency, autosomal recessive, T cell-negative, B cell-negative, NK cell-positive (ClinVar).

How common is RAG1 p.Pro79= (c.237A>G) in the general population?

RAG1 p.Pro79= (c.237A>G) is very rare (popmax 8.47e-05%, nfe) (gnomAD).

How is Combined immunodeficiency with granulomatosis 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.
