## 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 **donor loss** (Δ 0.21) — a splice-altering prediction the current classification does not reflect
- Conservation: phyloP -0.468, GERP -4.89, phastCons 0.001 — not a conserved position (phyloP < 0.1, ACGS BP7 cut)
- CADD: **PHRED 1.767**. 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 **0.21**, acceptor gain **0.00**, donor gain **0.01**. Largest is donor loss.
- SpliceAI deltas (masked): acceptor loss **0.00**, donor loss **0.21**, acceptor gain **0.00**, donor gain **0.01**.
- Population frequency (gnomAD v4.1): grpmax **2.3%** (afr) · FAF95 2.21% · FAF99 2.17% · 1,724/75,012 in the highest group · 1,858/1,614,032 alleles overall — low-frequency (popmax 2.3%, afr).

| Ancestry group | Allele frequency | 1 in |
| --- | --- | --- |
| African / African-American (grpmax) | 2.3% | 44 |
| Remaining individuals (not grpmax-eligible) | 0.123% | 812 |
| Admixed American | 0.055% | 1,819 |
| Middle Eastern | 0.033% | 3,031 |
| South Asian | 0.0154% | 6,506 |
| European (non-Finnish) | 0.000678% | 147,492 |

*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}

**FBXO7** population constraint: LOEUF 0.955, pLI 2.9822e-07, missense-Z -0.0088092; ClinGen dosage — haploinsufficiency gene assoc. with recessive phenotype, triplosensitivity Not yet evaluated/3. *Lower LOEUF and higher pLI indicate a gene that tolerates loss-of-function poorly; ClinGen dosage is the curated haploinsufficiency call.*

## Protein context {#protein}

Residue **375** lies in the f-box domain.

AlphaFold model confidence (whole protein): pLDDT 67.13, 13% of residues very-high.

**2 experimental structure(s)** (PDB): [4L9C](https://www.rcsb.org/structure/4L9C), [4L9H](https://www.rcsb.org/structure/4L9H).
