AMACR variants have been associated with Alpha-methylacyl-CoA racemase deficiency (OMIM:614307) and as definitive G2P gene for the same condition. There are numerous reports of NM_014324.6(AMACR):c.154T>C (p.Ser52Pro) in unrelated cases of OMIM:614307 (PMID: 21576695;10655068;20821052;18032455;15249642).
