Computational evidence

Protein change
Missense predictors do not apply to this variant type; conservation carries the signal.
Consequence	nonsense (stop-gain)	predicted loss-of-function in a LoF-intolerant gene
NMD	predicted	premature termination codon in exon 2 of 20
Splicing
SpliceAI	—	not assessed · no allele here is in the release
Constraint at this position
Conservation	phyloP 12	GERP 2.1, phastCons 1
Overall

Predicted loss-of-function is descriptive, not an applied PVS1 code.
