Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 5 ACMG points: 5P and 0B. PM2PP3PP4PS4_Supporting

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.979C>T (p.His327Tyr) variant is classified as Uncertain significance - insufficient evidence for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying ACMG/AMP evidence codes PM2, PP3, PP4 and PS4_Supporting as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (specification version 1.2) on 22 July 2022.The supporting evidence is as follows: PM2 - Variant is found in South Asian (gnomAD v2.1.1 (Popmax MAF = 0.0004900 (0.049%), total alleles number = 15), gnomAD v4.0.0 (Popmax MAF = 0.0006492 (0.06492%), total alleles number = 56)). Variant is absent from other populations in gnomAD v2.1.1 and is found in only 1 case from Remaining population in gnomAD v4.0.0 (Popmax MAF = 0.00001656 ( 0.001656%)). We assume founder effect due to isolated occurrence in the South Asian population. For this reason, we excluded the SA population from PM2 assessment.PP3 - REVEL = 0.958.PP4 - Variant meets PM2 and is identified in at least one case who fufills clinical criteria for FH (see PS4 for details), after alternative causes of high cholesterol were excluded.PS4_Supporting - Variant meets PM2 and is identified in 3 index cases (1 case with DLCN criteria>=6 from Robarts Research Institute, Canada; 1 case with Simon-Broome criteria in PMID:9259195 (Day et al., 1997), UK; 1 case with DLCN criteria>=6 in PMID:11810272 (Fouchier et al., 2001), The Netherlands).

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]
