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
NMD	predicted	premature termination codon in exon 2 of 8
Splicing
SpliceAI	Δ0.35	donor gain · deltas
Pangolin	Δ0.39	gain · loss 0.33 · agrees with SpliceAI · independent

CADD	37.0	PHRED · no single calibrated threshold — expert panels disagree

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

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.
