Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got 0 ACMG points: 2P and 2B. PM2 BP7 BP4

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.1185G>C (p.Val395=) variant is classified as Likely benign for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying evidence codes (PM2, BP4 and BP7) as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gim.2021.09.012). The supporting evidence is as follows:PM2 - This variant is absent from gnomAD (gnomAD v2.1.1).BP4 - No REVEL available, splicing evaluation needed. Functional data on splicing not available. A) variant is located at -3 to +6 bases of canonical donor splicing site. MES scores: de novo donor = 9.1, authentic donor = 7.23. Ratio variant/wt = 1.26. It is above 1.0. Score ≥ 1.0 is supportive evidence of benign. B) The variant is located within range but does not create de novo GT site. C) Variant not on limits. Variant is not predicted to alter splicing. So BP4 is met.BP7 - Variant is synonymous and meets BP4. LINK:https://erepo.genome.network/evrepo/ui/classification/CA10585340/MONDO:0007750/013

Genes affected

LDLR (HGNC:6547): (low density lipoprotein receptor) The low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) gene family consists of cell surface proteins involved in receptor-mediated endocytosis of specific ligands. The encoded protein is normally bound at the cell membrane, where it binds low density lipoprotein/cholesterol and is taken into the cell. Lysosomes release the cholesterol, which is made available for repression of microsomal enzyme 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG CoA) reductase, the rate-limiting step in cholesterol synthesis. At the same time, a reciprocal stimulation of cholesterol ester synthesis takes place. Mutations in this gene cause the autosomal dominant disorder, familial hypercholesterolemia. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

Significance: Likely benign

Review Status: reviewed by expert panel

Collection Method: curation

The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.1185G>C (p.Val395=) variant is classified as Likely benign for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying evidence codes (PM2, BP4 and BP7) as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gim.2021.09.012). The supporting evidence is as follows: PM2 - This variant is absent from gnomAD (gnomAD v2.1.1). BP4 - No REVEL available, splicing evaluation needed. Functional data on splicing not available. A) variant is located at -3 to +6 bases of canonical donor splicing site. MES scores: de novo donor = 9.1, authentic donor = 7.23. Ratio variant/wt = 1.26. It is above 1.0. Score >= 1.0 is supportive evidence of benign. B) The variant is located within range but does not create de novo GT site. C) Variant not on limits. Variant is not predicted to alter splicing. So BP4 is met. BP7 - Variant is synonymous and meets BP4. -

Significance: Likely benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This is a synonymous (silent) variant that is not predicted to impact splicing and occurs at a nucleotide which is not conserved. Therefore this variant has been classified as Likely Benign (BP4, BP7). -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change affects codon 395 of the LDLR mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the LDLR protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 19411563). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 251702). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
