Is SLC19A3 p.Asn368= (c.1104T>C) pathogenic?

SLC19A3 p.Asn368= (c.1104T>C) is classified Likely benign in SLC19A3 (ClinVar, Multiple submitters, 3 submitters; last evaluated 2026-01-05). Very rare (popmax 0.00322%, nfe); Associated with biotin-responsive basal ganglia disease.

What condition is associated with SLC19A3 p.Asn368= (c.1104T>C)?

SLC19A3 p.Asn368= (c.1104T>C) is associated with biotin-responsive basal ganglia disease (ClinVar).

How common is SLC19A3 p.Asn368= (c.1104T>C) in the general population?

SLC19A3 p.Asn368= (c.1104T>C) is very rare (popmax 0.00322%, nfe) (gnomAD).

How is Thiamine-responsive encephalopathy 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.
