How common is SGCD p.Gly68= (c.204A>G) in the general population?

SGCD p.Gly68= (c.204A>G) is very rare (popmax 0.00167%, amr) (gnomAD).

SGCD p.Gly68=

Q: What condition is associated with SGCD p.Gly68= (c.204A>G)?

SGCD p.Gly68= (c.204A>G) is associated with autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2F, dilated cardiomyopathy 1L (ClinVar).

Q: How is Delta-sarcoglycan-related limb-girdle muscular dystrophy R6 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.
