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]

This missense variant replaces asparagine with serine at codon 316 of the LDLR protein. This variant is also known as p.Asn295Ser in the mature protein. This variant alters a conserved asparagine residue in the EGF-like repeat A of the LDLR protein (a.a. 315-354), where pathogenic missense variants are found enriched (ClinVar-LDLR). Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have a deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). A functional study has shown that this variant interferes with protein transport and significantly affects LDLR biosynthesis or turnover (PMID: 25647241). This variant has been reported in ten individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 21376320, 28502495, 33994402). It has also been reported in two individuals affected with myocardial infarction (PMID: 25647241) and in an individual affected with coronary artery disease (PMID: 27050191). This variant has been identified in 6/282464 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic.

This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 316 of the LDLR protein (p.Asn316Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs730882094, gnomAD 0.005%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 20538126). This variant is also known as N295S. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 183103). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C45"). Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects LDLR function (PMID: 25647241). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.

The p.N316S variant (also known as c.947A>G), located in coding exon 7 of the LDLR gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 947. The asparagine at codon 316 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant has been reported in subjects with high cholesterol and heart disease, but has also been reported in individuals in the general population (Chiou KR et al. Am J Cardiol, 2010 Jun;105:1752-8; Do R et al. Nature, 2015 Feb;518:102-6; Khera AV et al. J Am Coll Cardiol, 2016 Jun;67:2578-89; Hou YC et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2020 Feb;117:3053-3062). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear.
