Is TRIM2 p.Ser522Cys (c.1565C>G) pathogenic?

TRIM2 p.Ser522Cys (c.1565C>G) is classified Uncertain significance in TRIM2 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2020-02-05). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.0905); Very rare (popmax 8.48e-05%, nfe); Associated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2R.

What condition is associated with TRIM2 p.Ser522Cys (c.1565C>G)?

TRIM2 p.Ser522Cys (c.1565C>G) is associated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2R (ClinVar).

How common is TRIM2 p.Ser522Cys (c.1565C>G) in the general population?

TRIM2 p.Ser522Cys (c.1565C>G) is very rare (popmax 8.48e-05%, nfe) (gnomAD).

How is Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2R inherited?

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

What do computational predictors say about TRIM2 p.Ser522Cys (c.1565C>G)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.0905) — 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.

⚠ Isoform check: AlphaMissense numbered on a different transcript (AM S495C vs ClinVar S522C) — verify the residue.

Population frequency

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.
