## Summary

**PPCS p.Pro91Ala (c.271C>G)** is classified **Uncertain significance** in PPCS (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2021-11-24). AlphaMissense: likely pathogenic (0.8011); Very rare (popmax 0.000424%, nfe).

**At a glance:** Uncertain significance · review: Single submitter · rsID rs746009484 · 1 submitter · AlphaMissense likely pathogenic · very rare (popmax 0.000424%, nfe)

> **Built without this gene's context.** ClinVar files this variant under an overlapping gene, so its own gene's record set does not contain it and this page is assembled from the variant alone. Gene constraint and dosage, protein structure, pathways, panels and related-variant links were not looked up — absent from this page, not from the data.

## For patients & families {#patients}

This is a change in the PPCS gene that is currently of uncertain significance — a definitive interpretation has not yet been established, submitted by 1 submitter.

*Reference information, not medical advice, and not a prediction for any individual. A genetic counselor or clinician can interpret what it means for you and your family.*

## Computational & population evidence {#evidence}

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

- AlphaMissense **likely pathogenic** (0.8011)
- REVEL 0.806 (moderately pathogenic-leaning) — agrees with AlphaMissense
- SaProt LLR -11.062 (damaging) — agrees with AlphaMissense
- → **In-silico consensus:** AlphaMissense, REVEL and SaProt all call this damaging
- Conservation: phyloP 7.64, GERP 2.13, phastCons 1 — highly conserved (agrees)
- CADD: **PHRED 26.3**. 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 1.04** across the covering region of the MANE Select transcript (42,456,566–42,457,253), spanning 687 bp. Chi-square p 0.55. Describes the region, not this allele; gnomAD v4.1.1's own constrained determination. *Descriptive; no ACMG code applied.*
- SpliceAI: **not looked up on this page** — it was served without the gene's SpliceAI index, so no lookup was made. This is a gap in this page, not in the data, and says nothing about whether a splicing effect is predicted.
- Population frequency (gnomAD v4.1): grpmax **0.000424%** (nfe) · FAF95 0.000124% · FAF99 9e-05% · 5/1,180,040 in the highest group · 5/1,613,548 alleles overall — very rare (popmax 0.000424%, nfe).

*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.*
