## Computational & population evidence {#evidence}

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

- AlphaMissense **likely benign** (0.1057)
- REVEL 0.313 (indeterminate)
- SaProt LLR -8.133 (tolerated) — agrees with AlphaMissense
- → **In-silico consensus:** AlphaMissense and SaProt both call this tolerated; REVEL is indeterminate
- SpliceAI predicts **donor loss** (Δ 0.27) — a splice-altering prediction on an uncertain variant — a signal for review
- Conservation: phyloP 5.966, GERP 1.11, phastCons 1 — highly conserved (differs from AlphaMissense)
- CADD: **PHRED 23.8**. 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.*
- Regional missense constraint: **o/e 0.92** across the covering region of the MANE Select transcript (196,841,237–196,926,616), spanning 85,379 bp. Chi-square p 0.0064. Describes the region, not this allele; gnomAD v4.1.1's own constrained determination. *Descriptive; no ACMG code applied.*
- SpliceAI deltas (raw): acceptor loss **0.00**, donor loss **0.27**, acceptor gain **0.00**, donor gain **0.00**. Largest is donor loss, 5 bp away.
- SpliceAI deltas (masked): acceptor loss **0.00**, donor loss **0.00**, acceptor gain **0.00**, donor gain **0.00**.
  Masked SpliceAI — what Ensembl VEP and the Broad lookup serve by default — is below the reporting threshold here, so those tools show **no splice signal** for this allele. Masking zeroes a loss scored against a position that is not an annotated splice site, and a gain that merely strengthens an existing one, so the raw score above is describing a cryptic site rather than the site the variant sits on. *No ACMG code is assigned either way.*
- Population frequency (gnomAD v4.1): grpmax **0.0056%** (nfe) · FAF95 0.00451% · FAF99 0.00412% · 66/1,179,526 in the highest group · 69/1,612,914 alleles overall — very rare (popmax 0.0056%, nfe).

| Ancestry group | Allele frequency | 1 in |
| --- | --- | --- |
| European (non-Finnish) (grpmax) | 0.0056% | 17,872 |
| Remaining individuals (not grpmax-eligible) | 0.0032% | 31,235 |
| African / African-American | 0.00133% | 74,964 |

*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}

**PGAP1** population constraint: LOEUF 0.691, pLI 0.020573, missense-Z 1.1001. *Lower LOEUF and higher pLI indicate a gene that tolerates loss-of-function poorly; ClinGen dosage is the curated haploinsufficiency call.*

## Protein context {#protein}


AlphaFold model confidence (whole protein): pLDDT 89.15, 73% of residues very-high.

## What this gene does {#gene-function}
