Is RD3 p.Pro95Ser (c.283C>T) pathogenic?

RD3 p.Pro95Ser (c.283C>T) is classified Uncertain significance in RD3 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2019-11-20). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.2269); Ultra-rare (popmax 0.0223%, eas); Associated with Leber congenital amaurosis 12.

What condition is associated with RD3 p.Pro95Ser (c.283C>T)?

RD3 p.Pro95Ser (c.283C>T) is associated with Leber congenital amaurosis 12 (ClinVar).

How common is RD3 p.Pro95Ser (c.283C>T) in the general population?

RD3 p.Pro95Ser (c.283C>T) is ultra-rare (popmax 0.0223%, eas) (gnomAD).

How is Leber congenital amaurosis inherited?

Typically Autosomal dominant, Autosomal recessive (Orphanet). A genetic counselor can assess individual risk for a family.

What do computational predictors say about RD3 p.Pro95Ser (c.283C>T)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.2269) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

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.
