## 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 **acceptor gain** (Δ 0.48) — a splice-altering prediction on an uncertain variant — a signal for review
- Conservation: phyloP -0.569, GERP -3.57 — not a conserved position (phyloP < 0.1, ACGS BP7 cut)
- CADD: **PHRED 15.63**. 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 **0.01**, donor loss **0.00**, acceptor gain **0.48**, donor gain **0.00**. Largest is acceptor gain.
- SpliceAI deltas (masked): acceptor loss **0.00**, donor loss **0.00**, acceptor gain **0.48**, donor gain **0.00**.
- Population frequency: **no allele count reported in gnomAD v4.1 (AN 1,609,394)** — 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}

**HTT** population constraint: ClinGen dosage — haploinsufficiency 0/3, triplosensitivity 0/3. *Lower LOEUF and higher pLI indicate a gene that tolerates loss-of-function poorly; ClinGen dosage is the curated haploinsufficiency call.*

Curated gene–disease validity (ClinGen):

- **Huntington disease** — Definitive (AD)
- **autism spectrum disorder** — Disputed (AD)

## Protein context {#protein}


AlphaFold model confidence (whole protein): pLDDT 85.38, 75% of residues very-high.
