What condition is associated with SUN2 p.Glu125Ala (c.374A>C)?

SUN2 p.Glu125Ala (c.374A>C) is associated with Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (ClinVar).

How common is SUN2 p.Glu125Ala (c.374A>C) in the general population?

SUN2 p.Glu125Ala (c.374A>C) is absent from gnomAD v4.1 (gnomAD).

How is Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy inherited?

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

What do computational predictors say about SUN2 p.Glu125Ala (c.374A>C)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.1314) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

Computational evidence

Protein change
AlphaMissense	0.1314	likely benign
REVEL	0.055	moderately benign-leaning
SaProt	LLR -6.04	tolerated
⇒ AlphaMissense, REVEL and SaProt all call this tolerated.
Splicing
SpliceAI	<0.2	no splice effect predicted · four deltas, not one · how we know

Regional constraint	o/e 0.94	unconstrained · MANE · 12 kb · p 0.11 · regional, not allelic
Overall
CADD	21.4	PHRED · no single calibrated threshold — expert panels disagree

ClinVar classifies this uncertain; the computational predictors unanimously lean tolerated — a triage signal, not a reclassification

AlphaMissense carries the ACMG weight for missense; REVEL and SaProt are independent agreement signals.
