Is STAT5B p.Leu759= (c.2277G>A) pathogenic?

STAT5B p.Leu759= (c.2277G>A) is classified Likely benign in STAT5B (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2025-10-24). Very rare (popmax 0.00223%, eas); Associated with growth hormone insensitivity with immune dysregulation 1, autosomal recessive.

What condition is associated with STAT5B p.Leu759= (c.2277G>A)?

STAT5B p.Leu759= (c.2277G>A) is associated with growth hormone insensitivity with immune dysregulation 1, autosomal recessive (ClinVar).

How common is STAT5B p.Leu759= (c.2277G>A) in the general population?

STAT5B p.Leu759= (c.2277G>A) is very rare (popmax 0.00223%, eas) (gnomAD).

How is Laron syndrome with immunodeficiency inherited?

Typically Autosomal dominant, 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.
