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.

- a UniProt-annotated variant site (in spgf43; loss of protein expression; changed sperm axoneme assembly); a UniProt-annotated variant site (found in a female patient with primary ciliary dyskinesia-like symptoms including chronic sinusitis, bronchitis, chronic wet cough and recurrent pneumonia; uncertain significance); a UniProt-annotated variant site (found in 2 brothers with severe asthenozoospermia and a primary ciliary dyskinesia-like phenotype with recurrent airway infections, bronchiectasis, rhinosinusitis and otitis media; likely pathogenic); the 'interaction with ift20' region
