Abstract
In the following note, we will present an estimation of the single spin asymmetry in deeply virtual Compton scattering (DVCS) which directly allows one to test predictions of the ratio of the imaginary part of the amplitude in DIS to DVCS, as well as access the skewed parton distributions at small in the DGLAP region. We find it to be large for the HERA kinematics to be accessible in forthcoming runs with polarized electrons.
