This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.268G>A (p.Asp90Asn) variant is classified as Pathogenic for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying evidence codes PM5_Strong, PM2, PP1_Moderate, PS3_Moderate, PS4_Moderate and PP4 as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (https://doi.org/10.1101/2021.03.17.21252755). The supporting evidence is as follows: PM5_strong - there are 4 other missense variants is the same codon:- NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.268G>T (p.Asp90Tyr) - classified as Likely pathogenic​ by the FH VCEP, with these guidelines- NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.269A>C (p.Asp90Ala) - Likely pathogenic by these guidelines- NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.269A>G (p.Asp90Gly) - Pathogenic by these guidelines- NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.270T>A (p.Asp90Glu) - Pathogenic by these guidelines--- There are 2 variants classified as Pathogenic, so PM5_Strong is met.PP1_moderate - Variant segregates with phenotype in 4 informative meiosis from different labs: - 1 unaffected family member does not have the variant, from Molecular Genetics Laboratory (Centre for Cardiovascular Surgery and Transplantation);- 3 informative meiosis from 1 family from PMID 12837857 (Chang et al. 2003): 1 relative has the variant and phenotype (III:1), plus 2 relatives do not have the variant and do not have the phenotype (II:1 and III:2)4 informative meiosis, so PP1_Moderate is met.PM2 - PopMax MAF = 0.0008019 (0.08019%) in East Asian (gnomAD v2.1.1), but this is a founder variant in East Asian populations, so PM2 can be met in this instance.PS3_moderate - Level 2 FS: Chang et al., 2003 (PMID:12837857): Heterologous cells (COS-7), FACS assays - results: 55% LDLR cell surface and uptake. Binding is not studied, so not all cycle is studied (level 2 and not level 1)---- functional study is consistent with damaging effect, activity is below 70% of wild-type, so PS3_Moderate is met.PS4_moderate - variant meets PM2 and was identified in:- 1 index case who fulfills Simon Broome criteria of possible FH from Molecular Genetics Laboratory (Centre for Cardiovascular Surgery and Transplantation), Czech Republic;- 3 unrelated index cases, all with Dutch lipid clinic network >=6, from Robarts Research Institute, Canada;- at least 1 index case with DLCN score of definite FH from U4M - Lille University & CHRU Lille, Université de Lille - CHRU de Lille (SCV000583645.1 in ClinVar), France;- 1 index case who fulfills SB criteria of at least possible FH from PMID 9259195 (Day et al., 1997), UK;- 1 index case who fulfills SB criteria of at least possible FH from PMID 25962062 (Han et al., 2015), Korea;- 2 unrelated index cases who fulfill SB criteria of possible FH (TC>8mmol/L, plus CAD) from PMID 12837857 (Chang et al., 2003), Taiwan, China;9 cases, so PS4_Moderate is met.PP4 - variant meets PM2 and was identified in 9 unrelated index cases from different labs (see PS4 for details), so PP4 is met.

Genes affected
LDLR (HGNC:6547): (low density lipoprotein receptor) The low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) gene family consists of cell surface proteins involved in receptor-mediated endocytosis of specific ligands. The encoded protein is normally bound at the cell membrane, where it binds low density lipoprotein/cholesterol and is taken into the cell. Lysosomes release the cholesterol, which is made available for repression of microsomal enzyme 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG CoA) reductase, the rate-limiting step in cholesterol synthesis. At the same time, a reciprocal stimulation of cholesterol ester synthesis takes place. Mutations in this gene cause the autosomal dominant disorder, familial hypercholesterolemia. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, May 2022]
