## 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 (below), not from a missing predictor score.
- Conservation: phyloP -1.543, GERP -3.73 — not a conserved position (phyloP < 0.1, ACGS BP7 cut)
- CADD: **PHRED 1.775**. 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: **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 **0.00333%** (amr) · FAF95 0.000553% · FAF99 0.000211% · 2/59,996 in the highest group · 11/1,602,266 alleles overall — very rare (popmax 0.00333%, amr).

| Ancestry group | Allele frequency | 1 in |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Admixed American (grpmax) | 0.00333% | 29,998 |
| Remaining individuals (not grpmax-eligible) | 0.0016% | 62,404 |
| European (non-Finnish) | 0.000678% | 147,487 |

*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.*
