Is TREX1 p.Val235= (c.705C>T) pathogenic?

TREX1 p.Val235= (c.705C>T) is classified Likely benign in TREX1 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2023-11-24). Very rare (popmax 0.00446%, eas); Associated with Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome 1.

What condition is associated with TREX1 p.Val235= (c.705C>T)?

TREX1 p.Val235= (c.705C>T) is associated with Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome 1, retinal vasculopathy with cerebral leukoencephalopathy and systemic manifestations, chilblain lupus 1 (ClinVar).

How common is TREX1 p.Val235= (c.705C>T) in the general population?

TREX1 p.Val235= (c.705C>T) is very rare (popmax 0.00446%, eas) (gnomAD).

How is Aicardi-Goutières syndrome inherited?

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

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.
