Protein change
AlphaMissense	0.0857	likely benign
REVEL	0.144	moderately benign-leaning
SaProt	LLR -10.99	damaging
⇒ SaProt calls this damaging; AlphaMissense and REVEL do not.

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

⚠ Isoform check: AlphaMissense numbered on a different transcript (AM S785C vs ClinVar S885C) — verify the residue.

Absent from gnomAD v4.1. Not observed in any sequenced alleles — a rarity signal (ACMG PM2-supporting), not evidence of pathogenicity on its own.

Variant & gene context

Gene: MRTFA
Protein: p.Ser885Cys
Coding: c.2654C>G
MANE Select: NM_020831
dbSNP: rs774803635
Type: single nucleotide variant
Location: chr22:40411832 (GRCh38)
Gene constraint: LOEUF 0.389 · pLI 1.00 (gnomAD)
Structure: AlphaFold pLDDT 56.59 · 2 PDB
Residue 785 UniProt numbering: the 'disordered' region; a UniProt-annotated variant site (in imd66; probable loss-of-function; patient's dendritic cells are morphologically distinct from control dendritic cells and show reduced spreading on fibronectin-coated coverslips, a marked reduction in total f-actin staining and a complete absence of podosomes, a similar phenotype to that of thp1 cells in which mrtfa was silenced)
