## Computational & population evidence {#evidence}

**Concordance:** Mixed / partial computational evidence (see below).

- **Missense predictors (AlphaMissense/REVEL/SaProt) do not apply** to this variant type — they score amino-acid substitutions only. For non-missense variants the computational signal comes from conservation and, for splice-region changes, SpliceAI (below), not from a missing predictor score.
- SpliceAI predicts **acceptor gain** (Δ 0.45) — a splice-altering prediction the current classification does not reflect
- Conservation: phyloP 2.175, GERP -1.57, phastCons 1 — highly conserved position (PP3-type support)
- CADD: **PHRED 18.05**. No single ClinGen-calibrated threshold exists and the expert panels that use CADD disagree — GUCY2D/AIPL1 require ≥ 20.0 for an untranslated-region variant, ABCA4 ≥ 28.1 for a synonymous or indel variant, the Pulmonary Hypertension panel imports Pejaver 2022's missense-calibrated numbers, and the Antibody Deficiencies panel declines CADD entirely for PIK3CD. CADD v1.7 also incorporates Zoonomia phyloP, so it partly re-expresses the conservation above. *Descriptive; no threshold applied.*
- SpliceAI deltas (raw): acceptor loss **0.00**, donor loss **0.00**, acceptor gain **0.45**, donor gain **0.00**. Largest is acceptor gain.
- SpliceAI deltas (masked): acceptor loss **0.00**, donor loss **0.00**, acceptor gain **0.45**, donor gain **0.00**.
- Population frequency: **absent from gnomAD v4.1** — a rarity signal (ACMG PM2-supporting), not evidence of pathogenicity on its own.

*Computational predictors are not independent (ClinGen Variant Classification guidance): AlphaMissense (Cheng et al. 2023) carries the ACMG weight for missense and conservation (phyloP/GERP/phastCons) for non-missense; REVEL (Pejaver-2022 calibrated strength bands) and SaProt (Su et al. 2023, structure-aware, ClinVar-independent protein language model, raw LLR) are shown as orthogonal agreement signals, not additive. For frequency, the gnomAD v4.1 grpmax filtering allele frequency (FAF95) is ClinGen's designated BA1/BS1 input (gnomAD v4 guidance v3.0, June 2025); BA1/BS1 thresholds are disease-specific, not a blanket 5%. Predictions, not a clinical determination.*

## Gene constraint & dosage {#gene-context}

**COMP** population constraint: LOEUF 1.073, pLI 1.6355e-24, missense-Z 1.5119; ClinGen dosage — haploinsufficiency 0, triplosensitivity 0 (0–3 scale). *Lower LOEUF and higher pLI indicate a gene that tolerates loss-of-function poorly; ClinGen dosage is the curated haploinsufficiency call.*

Curated gene–disease validity (ClinGen):

- **COMP-related skeletal dysplasia** — Definitive (AD)

## Protein context {#protein}

Residue **530** lies in the 'mediates cell survival and induction of the iap family of survival proteins' region; a disulfide bond.

AlphaFold model confidence (whole protein): pLDDT 88.60, 67% of residues very-high.

**1 experimental structure(s)** (PDB): [3FBY](https://www.rcsb.org/structure/3FBY).

## What this gene does {#gene-function}

*Describes the biological roles of COMP (the gene this variant disrupts) — not effects measured for this specific variant. A damaging variant is expected to affect these functions and pathways; the degree depends on the variant.*

**How this variant is thought to act:** COMP's established molecular role includes protease binding. p.Asp530= falls in the mediates cell survival and induction of the iap family of survival proteins region.
