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]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 19-11129671-G-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr19-11129671-G-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 1792888.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

The c.2547+1G>T intronic pathogenic mutation results from a G to T one nucleotide after coding exon 17 of the LDLR gene. A pathogenic mutation (c.2547+1G>A) at the same position has been reported in the literature; reportedly, this mutation resulted in skipping of exon 17 and the generation of an alternate stop codon (Medeiros AM et al. Atherosclerosis. 2010;212(2):553-8). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. Using the BDGP and ESEfinder splice site prediction tools, the c.2547+1G>T alteration is predicted to abolish the native donor splice site; however, direct evidence is unavailable. In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, since alterations that disrupt the canonical splice donor site are typically deleterious in nature, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation (ACMG Recommendations for Standards for Interpretation and Reporting of Sequence Variations. Revision 2007. Genet Med. 2008;10:294).
