Is TYK2 p.Ala719= (c.2157C>T) pathogenic?

TYK2 p.Ala719= (c.2157C>T) is classified Likely benign in TYK2 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2024-04-08). Very rare (popmax 0.00237%, nfe); Associated with immunodeficiency 35.

What condition is associated with TYK2 p.Ala719= (c.2157C>T)?

TYK2 p.Ala719= (c.2157C>T) is associated with immunodeficiency 35 (ClinVar).

How common is TYK2 p.Ala719= (c.2157C>T) in the general population?

TYK2 p.Ala719= (c.2157C>T) is very rare (popmax 0.00237%, nfe) (gnomAD).

TYK2 p.Ala719=

Q: How is Susceptibility to infection due to TYK2 deficiency inherited?

Typically 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.
