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.

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -13 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.79).
BP6
Variant 2-21044060-G-C is Benign according to our data. Variant chr2-21044060-G-C is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 265871.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submissions are: {Uncertain_significance=1, Likely_benign=1}.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.0177 (2699/152250) while in subpopulation AFR AF= 0.0364 (1512/41578). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0348. There are 35 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 1223 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position pass quality control queck.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd at 34 SD gene

Hypercholesterolemia, autosomal dominant, type B Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaApr 24, 2018This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. The evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was sufficient to determine this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign. -
