Computational evidence

Protein change
AlphaMissense	0.8583	likely pathogenic
REVEL	0.444	indeterminate
SaProt	LLR -14.44	damaging
⇒ AlphaMissense and SaProt both call this damaging; REVEL makes no call.

Overall
CADD	2.684	PHRED · no single calibrated threshold — expert panels disagree

ClinVar classifies this uncertain; the computational predictors unanimously lean damaging — 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 8.48e-05% European (non-Finnish) · 1/1,179,762 alleles

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.
