Computational evidence

Protein change
AlphaMissense	0.259	likely benign
REVEL	0.546	indeterminate
SaProt	LLR -11.20	damaging
⇒ SaProt calls this damaging; AlphaMissense does not; REVEL is indeterminate.

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) · 1/1,179,464 alleles

Overall 6.2e-05% 1/1,613,272 alleles · very rare exomes 1/1,461,140 · genomes 0/152,132 · 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.
