Is CFLAR p.Gln8Glu (c.22C>G) pathogenic?

CFLAR p.Gln8Glu (c.22C>G) is classified Uncertain significance in CFLAR (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2023-06-06). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.0665); Very rare (popmax 0.00878%, sas).

How common is CFLAR p.Gln8Glu (c.22C>G) in the general population?

CFLAR p.Gln8Glu (c.22C>G) is very rare (popmax 0.00878%, sas) (gnomAD).

What do computational predictors say about CFLAR p.Gln8Glu (c.22C>G)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.0665) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

Protein change
AlphaMissense	0.0665	likely benign
REVEL	0.144	moderately benign-leaning
SaProt	LLR -6.42	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.
