Computational evidence

Protein change
Missense predictors do not apply to this variant type; conservation carries the signal.
Consequence	frameshift	predicted loss-of-function in a haploinsufficient gene (ClinGen); NMD-escape possible for C-terminal truncations
Splicing
SpliceAI	—	not assessed · substitutions only
Constraint at this position
Conservation	phyloP 1.3	GERP -0.55, phastCons 0.001
Region caveats
Repeat context	tandem	G-rich low complexity, simple repeat · ambiguous alignment · confidence, not pathogenicity

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

Population frequency

dbSNP / gnomAD

No gnomAD frequency available for this variant. This is missing data, not an absence: the variant may or may not be present in gnomAD. Rarity (ACMG PM2) and BA1/BS1 cannot be assessed for it.
