Is UNC13D p.Asp665= (c.1995C>T) pathogenic?

UNC13D p.Asp665= (c.1995C>T) is classified Likely benign in UNC13D (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2023-10-04). Very rare (popmax 0.000932%, nfe); Associated with familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis 3.

What condition is associated with UNC13D p.Asp665= (c.1995C>T)?

UNC13D p.Asp665= (c.1995C>T) is associated with familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis 3 (ClinVar).

How common is UNC13D p.Asp665= (c.1995C>T) in the general population?

UNC13D p.Asp665= (c.1995C>T) is very rare (popmax 0.000932%, nfe) (gnomAD).

How is Familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis 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.
