Genes affected
APOB (HGNC:603): (apolipoprotein B) This gene product is the main apolipoprotein of chylomicrons and low density lipoproteins (LDL), and is the ligand for the LDL receptor. It occurs in plasma as two main isoforms, apoB-48 and apoB-100: the former is synthesized exclusively in the gut and the latter in the liver. The intestinal and the hepatic forms of apoB are encoded by a single gene from a single, very long mRNA. The two isoforms share a common N-terminal sequence. The shorter apoB-48 protein is produced after RNA editing of the apoB-100 transcript at residue 2180 (CAA->UAA), resulting in the creation of a stop codon, and early translation termination. Mutations in this gene or its regulatory region cause hypobetalipoproteinemia, normotriglyceridemic hypobetalipoproteinemia, and hypercholesterolemia due to ligand-defective apoB, diseases affecting plasma cholesterol and apoB levels.

The c.4111G>A, p.Ala1371Thr variant identified in the APOB gene has not been reported in the literature. This variant has 14 heterozygotes in gnomAD(v3.0) suggesting it is not a common benign variant in the populations represented in that database. In silico algorithms predict a conflicting interpretation of pathogenicity. Given the lack of compelling evidence for its pathogenicity, the c.4111G>A, p.Ala1371Thr variant identified in the APOB gene is reported as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

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

The c.4111G>A (p.A1371T) alteration is located in exon 25 (coding exon 25) of the APOB gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 4111, causing the alanine (A) at amino acid position 1371 to be replaced by a threonine (T). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
