Is RHBDF2 p.Pro297Ser (c.889C>T) pathogenic?

RHBDF2 p.Pro297Ser (c.889C>T) is classified Uncertain significance in RHBDF2 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2023-08-09). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.0689); Absent from gnomAD v4.1; Associated with palmoplantar keratoderma-esophageal carcinoma syndrome.

What condition is associated with RHBDF2 p.Pro297Ser (c.889C>T)?

RHBDF2 p.Pro297Ser (c.889C>T) is associated with palmoplantar keratoderma-esophageal carcinoma syndrome (ClinVar).

How common is RHBDF2 p.Pro297Ser (c.889C>T) in the general population?

RHBDF2 p.Pro297Ser (c.889C>T) is absent from gnomAD v4.1 (gnomAD).

What do computational predictors say about RHBDF2 p.Pro297Ser (c.889C>T)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.0689) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

RHBDF2 p.Pro297Ser

Q: How is Palmoplantar keratoderma-esophageal carcinoma syndrome inherited?

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

ClinVar classifies this uncertain; the computational predictors unanimously lean tolerated — a triage signal, not a reclassification

AlphaMissense carries the ACMG weight for missense; REVEL and SaProt are independent agreement signals.

⚠ Isoform check: AlphaMissense numbered on a different transcript (AM P326S vs ClinVar P297S) — verify the residue.
