Is XPC p.Ile236Val (c.706A>G) pathogenic?

XPC p.Ile236Val (c.706A>G) is classified Uncertain significance in XPC (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2019-05-28). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.0883); Very rare (popmax 0.00168%, amr); Associated with xeroderma pigmentosum group C.

What condition is associated with XPC p.Ile236Val (c.706A>G)?

XPC p.Ile236Val (c.706A>G) is associated with xeroderma pigmentosum group C (ClinVar).

How common is XPC p.Ile236Val (c.706A>G) in the general population?

XPC p.Ile236Val (c.706A>G) is very rare (popmax 0.00168%, amr) (gnomAD).

How is Xeroderma pigmentosum inherited?

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

What do computational predictors say about XPC p.Ile236Val (c.706A>G)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.0883) — 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.

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.
