Is SMARCA4 p.Pro236Arg (c.707C>G) pathogenic?

SMARCA4 p.Pro236Arg (c.707C>G) is classified Uncertain significance in SMARCA4 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2025-01-28). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.1808); Very rare (popmax 0.00273%, afr); Associated with rhabdoid tumor predisposition syndrome 2.

What condition is associated with SMARCA4 p.Pro236Arg (c.707C>G)?

SMARCA4 p.Pro236Arg (c.707C>G) is associated with rhabdoid tumor predisposition syndrome 2 (ClinVar).

How common is SMARCA4 p.Pro236Arg (c.707C>G) in the general population?

SMARCA4 p.Pro236Arg (c.707C>G) is very rare (popmax 0.00273%, afr) (gnomAD).

How is Rhabdoid tumor predisposition syndrome inherited?

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

What do computational predictors say about SMARCA4 p.Pro236Arg (c.707C>G)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.1808) — 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.
