Protein change
AlphaMissense	0.1264	likely benign
REVEL	0.11	moderately benign-leaning
SaProt	—	not scored · why
⇒ AlphaMissense and REVEL both call this tolerated; SaProt makes no call.

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

AlphaMissense carries the ACMG weight for missense; REVEL is an independent agreement signal.
