STAT2 p.Ser494=

Q: What condition is associated with STAT2 p.Ser494= (c.1482C>T)?

STAT2 p.Ser494= (c.1482C>T) is associated with primary immunodeficiency with post-measles-mumps-rubella vaccine viral infection (ClinVar).

Q: How is Primary immunodeficiency with post-measles-mumps-rubella vaccine viral infection 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.
