What condition is associated with UBA1 p.Pro612= (c.1836C>G)?

UBA1 p.Pro612= (c.1836C>G) is associated with infantile-onset X-linked spinal muscular atrophy (ClinVar).

How common is UBA1 p.Pro612= (c.1836C>G) in the general population?

UBA1 p.Pro612= (c.1836C>G) is ultra-rare (popmax 0.037%, amr) (gnomAD).

How is Infantile-onset X-linked spinal muscular atrophy inherited?

Typically X-linked 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.
