## 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 (below), not from a missing predictor score.
- Conservation: phyloP 0.541, GERP 0.546, phastCons 0.997 — weakly conserved position
- CADD: **PHRED 8.202**. 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: **below the reporting threshold**. This position is scored for a different substitution (C>A, Δ0.28 acceptor gain), so this allele was evaluated and its deltas all fell under Δ0.2 — a prediction of no splicing effect for this allele, not a gap in our data. *No ACMG code assigned.*
- Population frequency (gnomAD v4.1): grpmax **8.47e-05%** (nfe) · 1/1,180,038 in the highest group · 1/1,614,122 alleles overall — very rare (popmax 8.47e-05%, nfe).

*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}

**ENG** population constraint: LOEUF 0.374, pLI 1, missense-Z 1.285; ClinGen dosage — haploinsufficiency 3/3, triplosensitivity 0/3. *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):

- **juvenile polyposis syndrome** — Limited (AD)
- **telangiectasia, hereditary hemorrhagic, type 1** — Definitive (AD)

## Protein context {#protein}

Residue **504** lies in a β-strand; the zp domain; a UniProt-annotated variant site (in hht1; likely benign).

AlphaFold model confidence (whole protein): pLDDT 80.84, 40% of residues very-high.

**3 experimental structure(s)** (PDB): [5HZV](https://www.rcsb.org/structure/5HZV), [5HZW](https://www.rcsb.org/structure/5HZW), [5I04](https://www.rcsb.org/structure/5I04).

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

*Describes the biological roles of ENG (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:** ENG's established molecular role includes type II transforming growth factor beta receptor binding. p.Val504= falls in the zp domain.


### Molecular function & processes (GO — experimentally supported) {#go}

**Molecular function:** type II transforming growth factor beta receptor binding, galactose binding, glycosaminoglycan binding, coreceptor activity, signaling receptor activator activity, type I transforming growth factor beta receptor binding.

**Biological process:** negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II, vasculogenesis, response to hypoxia, negative regulation of endothelial cell proliferation, positive regulation of systemic arterial blood pressure, regulation of DNA-templated transcription.

## Clinical significance {#significance}

**Likely benign** — review status Single submitter *(criteria provided, single submitter)*, last evaluated 2019-08-16.
