Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 19 ACMG points: 19P and 0B. PS4PP1_StrongPM2PVS1PP4

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000527.5 (LDLR):c.1048C>T(p.Arg350Ter) variant is classified as Pathogenic for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying evidence codes (PM2, PVS1, PP4, PS4, PP1_Strong) as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gim.2021.09.012).The supporting evidence is as follows:PM2: PopMax MAF = 0.00005 in East Asian population in gnomAD (gnomAD v2.1.1).PVS1: The variant causing a premature stop codon amino-terminal of amino acid 830 (NM_000527.5:p.Lys830).PP4: This variant meets PM2 and is identified in >1 index case who met clinical criteria for FH after alternative causes for high cholesterol were excluded.PS4: Variant meets PM2 and is identified in 23 unrelated index cases fulfil clinical criteria for FH. Ten cases fulfil Simon Broome FH criteria (5 cases from Centre de Génétique Moléculaire et Chromosomique, Unité de génétique de l'Obésité et des Dyslipidémies , APHP.Sorbonne Université, Hôpital de la Pitié-Salpêtrière; 3 cases from Molecular Genetics Laboratory, Centre for Cardiovascular Surgery and Transplantation, PMID 22698793; 1 case from Cardiovascular Research Group, Instituto Nacional de Saude Doutor Ricardo Jorge; 1 case from Division of Cardiology, Department of Medicine, School of Medicine, National Yang-Ming University, Taipei, Taiwan (PMID 20538126)). Thirteen cases fulfil DLCN criteria (10 cases from Cardiovascular Genetics Laboratory, PathWest Laboratory Medicine WA; 1 case each from Lipid Clinic, Fundación Jiménez Díaz, Madrid, Spain (PMID 19318025); Department of Genetics and Pathology, Pomeranian Medical Academy, Szczecin, Poland (PMID 9654205); GeneDx).PP1_Strong: Variant segregates with FH phenotype in 20 informative meiosis from at least 11 families. Fifteen affected relatives tested positive for the variant from at least 6 families from 4 different labs (Centre de Génétique Moléculaire et Chromosomique, Unité de génétique de l'Obésité et des Dyslipidémies , APHP.Sorbonne Université, Hôpital de la Pitié-Salpêtrière; Molecular Genetics Laboratory, Centre for Cardiovascular Surgery and Transplantation; GeneDx; Cardiovascular Genetics Laboratory, PathWest Laboratory Medicine WA). Five unaffected relatives tested negative for the variant from 5 families (Cardiovascular Genetics Laboratory, PathWest Laboratory Medicine WA).

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]
