How common is BBX p.Ile251Leu (c.751A>T) in the general population?

BBX p.Ile251Leu (c.751A>T) is very rare (popmax 0.000679%, nfe) (gnomAD).

What do computational predictors say about BBX p.Ile251Leu (c.751A>T)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.2088) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

Computational evidence

Protein change
AlphaMissense	0.2088	likely benign
REVEL	0.542	indeterminate
SaProt	LLR -7.44	tolerated
⇒ AlphaMissense and SaProt both call this tolerated; REVEL makes no call.

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.
