Is CAVIN3 p.Leu6Ser (c.17T>C) pathogenic?

CAVIN3 p.Leu6Ser (c.17T>C) is classified Uncertain significance in CAVIN3 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2024-01-02). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.099); Very rare (popmax 0.00184%, nfe).

How common is CAVIN3 p.Leu6Ser (c.17T>C) in the general population?

CAVIN3 p.Leu6Ser (c.17T>C) is very rare (popmax 0.00184%, nfe) (gnomAD).

What do computational predictors say about CAVIN3 p.Leu6Ser (c.17T>C)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.099) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

Protein change
AlphaMissense	0.099	likely benign
REVEL	0.072	moderately benign-leaning
SaProt	LLR -6.25	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.
