## Computational & population evidence {#evidence}

**Concordance:** AlphaMissense and REVEL make no call here — the available evidence is described below.

- AlphaMissense **ambiguous** (0.5408) — no call either way
- REVEL 0.559 (indeterminate)
- SaProt LLR -9.252 (tolerated)
- Conservation: phyloP 11.779, GERP 1.97, phastCons 1 — highly conserved
- CADD: **PHRED 28.2**. No single ClinGen-calibrated threshold exists and the expert panels that use CADD disagree — GUCY2D/AIPL1 require ≥ 20.0 for an untranslated-region variant, ABCA4 ≥ 28.1 for a synonymous or indel variant, the Pulmonary Hypertension panel imports Pejaver 2022's missense-calibrated numbers, and the Antibody Deficiencies panel declines CADD entirely for PIK3CD. CADD v1.7 also incorporates Zoonomia phyloP, so it partly re-expresses the conservation above. *Descriptive; no threshold applied.*
- Regional missense constraint: **o/e 0.47** across the covering region of the MANE Select transcript (88,935,226–88,948,930), spanning 13,704 bp. Chi-square p 5.8e-32. Describes the region, not this allele; gnomAD v4.1.1's own constrained determination. *Descriptive; no ACMG code applied.*
- SpliceAI: **not looked up on this page** — it was served without the gene's SpliceAI index, so no lookup was made. This is a gap in this page, not in the data, and says nothing about whether a splicing effect is predicted.
- Population frequency: **absent from gnomAD v4.1** — a rarity signal (ACMG PM2-supporting), not evidence of pathogenicity on its own.

*Computational predictors are not independent (ClinGen Variant Classification guidance): AlphaMissense (Cheng et al. 2023) carries the ACMG weight for missense and conservation (phyloP/GERP/phastCons) for non-missense; REVEL (Pejaver-2022 calibrated strength bands) and SaProt (Su et al. 2023, structure-aware, ClinVar-independent protein language model, raw LLR) are shown as orthogonal agreement signals, not additive. For frequency, the gnomAD v4.1 grpmax filtering allele frequency (FAF95) is ClinGen's designated BA1/BS1 input (gnomAD v4 guidance v3.0, June 2025); BA1/BS1 thresholds are disease-specific, not a blanket 5%. Predictions, not a clinical determination.*
