Is TH p.Pro218Ser (c.652C>T) pathogenic?

TH p.Pro218Ser (c.652C>T) is classified Uncertain significance in TH (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2025-03-17). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.0985); No allele count reported in gnomAD v4.1 (AN 1,560,504); Associated with TH-deficient dopa-responsive dystonia.

What condition is associated with TH p.Pro218Ser (c.652C>T)?

TH p.Pro218Ser (c.652C>T) is associated with TH-deficient dopa-responsive dystonia (ClinVar).

How common is TH p.Pro218Ser (c.652C>T) in the general population?

TH p.Pro218Ser (c.652C>T) is no allele count reported in gnomAD v4.1 (AN 1,560,504) (gnomAD).

How is Autosomal recessive dopa-responsive dystonia inherited?

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

What do computational predictors say about TH p.Pro218Ser (c.652C>T)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.0985) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

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

⚠ Isoform check: AlphaMissense numbered on a different transcript (AM P249S vs ClinVar P218S) — verify the residue.
