Computational evidence

Protein change
Missense predictors do not apply to this variant type; conservation carries the signal.
Consequence	nonsense (stop-gain)	predicted loss-of-function in a LoF-intolerant gene
NMD	predicted	premature termination codon in exon 9 of 25
Splicing
SpliceAI	—	not assessed · no allele here is in the release
Pangolin	Δ0.20	loss · gain 0.01 · not in the SpliceAI release · independent
Constraint at this position
Conservation	phyloP 7.6	GERP 2.2, phastCons 1
Overall
CADD	40.0	PHRED · no single calibrated threshold — expert panels disagree

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

Population frequency

gnomAD v4.1 · exomes + genomes

Grpmax group 8.48e-05% European (non-Finnish) · 1/1,178,614 alleles

Overall 6.87e-05% 1/1,456,092 alleles · very rare

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.
