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.

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The heterozygous c.7698G>C (p.Glu2566Asp) missense variant identified in the APOB gene has been reported in a single individual affected with hypertriglyceridemia [1/438 hypertriglyceridemia patients; PMID:20657596] and in a single patient with a combined hyperlipidemia phenotype [PMID: 33303402]. The variant has 0.00007228 allele frequency in the gnomAD (v3) database (11 out of 152184 heterozygous alleles, no homozygotes) suggesting it is not a common benign variant in the populations represented in that database. This variant has been reported in the ClinVar database as a variant of uncertain significance (4) and likelybenign (1) [Variation ID: 402380]. This variant affects a moderately conserved residue [Glu2566] which is located in the first amphiphatic alpha-helical domain [residues 2045 to 2587] of the APOB protein (PMID: 19200547). In silico tools provide conflicting predictions about potential pathogenicity of this variant (CADD score= 22.4, REVEL score = 0.128). Due to the lack of compelling evidence for its pathogenicity, the heterozygous c.7698G>C (p.Glu2566Asp) missense variant identified inthe APOB gene is reported as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This 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). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

Significance:Likely benign

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

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. -
