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.

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as VUS-3A. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with familial hypercholesterolemia 2 (MIM#144010). (I) 0108 - This gene is associated with both recessive and dominant disease. Familial hypercholesterolemia 2 (MIM#144010) is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner, whereas hypobetalipoproteinemia (MIM#615558) is recessive (OMIM). (I) 0112 - The condition associated with this gene has incomplete penetrance (GeneReviews). (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from arginine to tryptophan. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0302 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v3) <0.001 for a dominant condition (22 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0309 - Alternative amino acid changes at the same position have been observed in gnomAD (v2 & v3) (5 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (I) 0501 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be damaging by multiple in silico tools or highly conserved with a major amino acid change. (SP) 0604 - Variant is not located in an established domain, motif, hotspot or informative constraint region. (I) 0710 - Another missense variant comparable to the one identified in this case has inconclusive previous evidence for pathogenicity. An alternative change to glutamine at the same residue has previously been reported as a VUS (ClinVar). (I) 0809 - Previous evidence of pathogenicity for this variant is inconclusive. The variant has previously been reported as a VUS and has been observed in an unaffected control (ClinVar, PMID: 30420299). (I) 0905 - No published segregation evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1007 - No published functional evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1102 - Strong phenotype match for this individual. (SP) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.R1284W variant (also known as c.3850C>T), located in coding exon 25 of the APOB gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 3850. The arginine at codon 1284 is replaced by tryptophan, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
