not provided Uncertain:2
The F3753L variant in the APOB gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant, nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. Although not present in the homozygous state, the NHLBI ESP Exome Sequencing Project reports F3753L was observed with a frequency of 0.77% (34/4406 alleles) in individuals of African American background, indicating it may be a rare variant in this population. The F3753L variant is a conservative amino acid substitution, which is not likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues share similar properties. This substitution occurs at a position that is not conserved, and in silico analysis is inconsistent in its predictions as to whether or not the variant is damaging to the protein structure/function. We interpret F3753L as a variant of uncertain significance. -
The APOB p.Phe3753Leu variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in Cosmic or LOVD 3.0. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs61741974) and in ClinVar (classified as benign by Invitae, likely benign by Color and as a VUS by Illumina and GeneDx). The variant was also identified in control databases in 181 of 282432 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.000641 increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: African in 171 of 24928 chromosomes (freq: 0.00686), Other in 2 of 7210 chromosomes (freq: 0.000277) and Latino in 8 of 35402 chromosomes (freq: 0.000226); it was not observed in the Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, European (Finnish), European (non-Finnish) or South Asian populations. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing at the variant location. The p.Phe3753 residue is conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein; this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -
Familial hypobetalipoproteinemia 1 Uncertain:1
This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

Hypercholesterolemia, autosomal dominant, type B Benign:1
This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as likely benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of likely benign for this disease. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1
This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
