Is ERAP1 p.Ile276Met (c.828A>G) pathogenic?

ERAP1 p.Ile276Met (c.828A>G) is classified Benign in ERAP1 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2024-01-24). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.0877); Common (popmax 26.1%, eas) — too common for a highly-penetrant pathogenic allele.

What do computational predictors say about ERAP1 p.Ile276Met (c.828A>G)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.0877) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

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.
