Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PVS1 PM2 PP4

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.718G>T (p.Glu240Ter) variant is classified as Pathogenic for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying evidence codes (PVS1, PM2 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: PVS1 - Variant is nonsense, causing a stop in codon 240. It is upstream of amino acid 830, so PVS1 is Met.PM2 - No population data was found for this variant in gnomAD (gnomAD v2.1.1).PP4 - Variant meets PM2. Variant identified in 1 index case with definite heterozygous hypercholesterolemia by DLCN score from PMID:16250003.

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]
