SKI p.Gln157=

Q: What condition is associated with SKI p.Gln157= (c.471G>A)?

SKI p.Gln157= (c.471G>A) is associated with familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection, Shprintzen-Goldberg syndrome (ClinVar).

Q: How is Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection inherited?

Typically Autosomal dominant (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.
