## 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 3.891, GERP -0.888, phastCons 1 — highly conserved position (PP3-type support)
- Molecular consequence: **frameshift** — a predicted loss-of-function variant. Gene population constraint: LOEUF 0.955, pLI 2.9822e-07. *Descriptive; not an applied PVS1 code.*
- Nonsense-mediated decay: the premature termination codon is **in the last exon (9 of 9)** — predicted to **escape NMD**, so the truncated protein is likely expressed. An input to PVS1, not an applied code.
- SpliceAI: **not assessed** — the release is built from a substitutions-only source, so it holds no deletion variants. That is a property of the dataset, not of the variant, and is not evidence against a splicing effect.
- Population frequency: **no gnomAD frequency available for this variant** — rarity (ACMG PM2) and BA1/BS1 cannot be assessed for this variant.

*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 **514** lies in the 'important for interaction with cdk6' region; the 'disordered' region.

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).
