Is RAG1 p.Val35Met (c.103G>A) pathogenic?

RAG1 p.Val35Met (c.103G>A) is classified Uncertain significance in RAG1 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2025-07-09). AlphaMissense: ambiguous (0.4189); Very rare (popmax 0.00134%, afr); Associated with severe combined immunodeficiency, autosomal recessive, T cell-negative, B cell-negative, NK cell-positive.

How common is RAG1 p.Val35Met (c.103G>A) in the general population?

RAG1 p.Val35Met (c.103G>A) is very rare (popmax 0.00134%, afr) (gnomAD).

What do computational predictors say about RAG1 p.Val35Met (c.103G>A)?

AlphaMissense predicts ambiguous (score 0.4189) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

RAG1 p.Val35Met

Q: What condition is associated with RAG1 p.Val35Met (c.103G>A)?

RAG1 p.Val35Met (c.103G>A) is associated with severe combined immunodeficiency, autosomal recessive, T cell-negative, B cell-negative, NK cell-positive, combined immunodeficiency with skin granulomas (ClinVar).

Q: How is Severe combined immunodeficiency due to complete RAG1/2 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.
