Is SYNJ1 p.Pro566= (c.1698C>A) pathogenic?

SYNJ1 p.Pro566= (c.1698C>A) is classified Likely benign in SYNJ1 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2022-11-26). Absent from gnomAD v4.1; Associated with early-onset Parkinson disease 20.

What condition is associated with SYNJ1 p.Pro566= (c.1698C>A)?

SYNJ1 p.Pro566= (c.1698C>A) is associated with early-onset Parkinson disease 20, developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 53 (ClinVar).

How common is SYNJ1 p.Pro566= (c.1698C>A) in the general population?

SYNJ1 p.Pro566= (c.1698C>A) is absent from gnomAD v4.1 (gnomAD).

How is Young-onset Parkinson disease inherited?

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