Computational evidence

Protein change
Missense predictors do not apply to this variant type; conservation/SpliceAI carries the signal.
Consequence	nonsense (stop-gain)	predicted loss-of-function in a haploinsufficient gene (ClinGen); NMD-escape possible for C-terminal truncations
Splicing
SpliceAI	Δ0.58	acceptor gain · deltas
Pangolin	Δ0.44	gain · loss 0.19 · agrees with SpliceAI · independent
Constraint at this position
Conservation	phyloP 6.6	GERP 0.98, phastCons 1
Overall
CADD	40.0	PHRED · no single calibrated threshold — expert panels disagree

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