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]

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant (also known as p.Ser670Leu in the mature protein) replaces serine with leucine at codon 691 of the LDLR protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: PMID: 28379029, 28965616). This variant has been identified in 8/282600 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces serine with leucine at codon 691 of the LDLR protein. This variant is also known as p.Ser670Leu in the mature protein. Computational prediction tools indicate that this variant has a deleterious impact on protein structure and function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in at least two individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 28379029, 28965616). This variant has been identified in 8/282600 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 691 of the LDLR protein (p.Ser691Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs369943481, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 28379029, 28965616; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 403644). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. This variant disrupts the p.Ser691 amino acid residue in LDLR. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with LDLR-related conditions (PMID: 32770674), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. 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. -

Variant summary: LDLR c.2072C>T (p.Ser691Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Epidermal growth factor-like domain (IPR000742) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.8e-05 in 251196 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.2072C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with hypercholesterolemia (example: Tichy_2017, Pirillo_2017, Trinder_2020, Gratton_2023, Internal data). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 28965616, 28379029, 33079599, 37409534, No_PMID).ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 403644). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

The p.S691L variant (also known as c.2072C>T), located in coding exon 14 of the LDLR gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2072. The serine at codon 691 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This variant co-occurred with a second LDLR variant in an individual with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), and was also detected in an additional individual from a different FH cohort; however, clinical details were limited (Pirillo A et al. Atheroscler Suppl, 2017 Oct;29:17-24; Tich&yacute; L et al. Physiol Res, 2017 Apr;66:S47-S54). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
