Is BAG1 p.Glu34Lys (c.100G>A) pathogenic?

BAG1 p.Glu34Lys (c.100G>A) is classified Uncertain significance in BAG1 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2025-04-08). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.1387); Rare (popmax 0.109%, sas).

How common is BAG1 p.Glu34Lys (c.100G>A) in the general population?

BAG1 p.Glu34Lys (c.100G>A) is rare (popmax 0.109%, sas) (gnomAD).

What do computational predictors say about BAG1 p.Glu34Lys (c.100G>A)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.1387) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

Protein change
AlphaMissense	0.1387	likely benign
REVEL	0.02	moderately benign-leaning
SaProt	LLR -7.54	tolerated
⇒ AlphaMissense, REVEL and SaProt all call this tolerated.

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.
