Computational evidence

Protein change
AlphaMissense	0.1599	likely benign
REVEL	0.437	indeterminate
SaProt	LLR -3.58	tolerated
⇒ AlphaMissense and SaProt both call this tolerated; REVEL is indeterminate.
Splicing
SpliceAI	<0.2	no splice effect predicted · four deltas, not one · how we know
Constraint at this position
Conservation	phyloP 12	GERP 2.5, phastCons 1
Regional constraint	o/e 1.06	unconstrained · MANE · 920 kb · p 0.22 · regional, not allelic
Overall
CADD	24.7	PHRED · no single calibrated threshold — expert panels disagree

ClinVar classifies this uncertain; the computational predictors unanimously lean tolerated — a triage signal, not a reclassification

AlphaMissense carries the ACMG weight for missense; REVEL and SaProt are independent agreement signals.

Population frequency

gnomAD v4.1 · exomes + genomes

Grpmax group 8.49e-05% European (non-Finnish) · 1/1,177,812 alleles

Overall 6.21e-05% 1/1,611,228 alleles · very rare exomes 1/1,458,990 · genomes 0/152,238 · joint denominator

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.
