Is SUN2 p.Val612Met (c.1834G>A) pathogenic?

SUN2 p.Val612Met (c.1834G>A) is classified Uncertain significance in SUN2 (ClinVar, Multiple submitters, 2 submitters; last evaluated 2025-12-11). AlphaMissense: ambiguous (0.4563); Very rare (popmax 0.00133%, afr); Associated with Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy.

What condition is associated with SUN2 p.Val612Met (c.1834G>A)?

SUN2 p.Val612Met (c.1834G>A) is associated with Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (ClinVar).

How common is SUN2 p.Val612Met (c.1834G>A) in the general population?

SUN2 p.Val612Met (c.1834G>A) is very rare (popmax 0.00133%, afr) (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.Val612Met (c.1834G>A)?

AlphaMissense predicts ambiguous (score 0.4563) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

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.
