Is TP53 p.Asp391Glu (c.1173C>A) pathogenic?

TP53 p.Asp391Glu (c.1173C>A) is classified Uncertain significance in TP53 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2025-12-14). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.2888); Absent from gnomAD v4.1; Associated with Li-Fraumeni syndrome.

What condition is associated with TP53 p.Asp391Glu (c.1173C>A)?

TP53 p.Asp391Glu (c.1173C>A) is associated with Li-Fraumeni syndrome (ClinVar).

How common is TP53 p.Asp391Glu (c.1173C>A) in the general population?

TP53 p.Asp391Glu (c.1173C>A) is absent from gnomAD v4.1 (gnomAD).

How is Li-Fraumeni syndrome inherited?

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

What do computational predictors say about TP53 p.Asp391Glu (c.1173C>A)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.2888) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

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.
