What condition is associated with STAT3 p.Gln9= (c.27G>A)?

STAT3 p.Gln9= (c.27G>A) is associated with hyper-IgE recurrent infection syndrome 1, autosomal dominant (ClinVar).

How common is STAT3 p.Gln9= (c.27G>A) in the general population?

STAT3 p.Gln9= (c.27G>A) is very rare (popmax 0.00534%, afr) (gnomAD).

STAT3 p.Gln9=

Q: How is Autosomal dominant hyper-IgE syndrome due to STAT3 deficiency 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.
