Genes affected

PCSK9 (HGNC:20001): (proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9) This gene encodes a member of the subtilisin-like proprotein convertase family, which includes proteases that process protein and peptide precursors trafficking through regulated or constitutive branches of the secretory pathway. The encoded protein undergoes an autocatalytic processing event with its prosegment in the ER and is constitutively secreted as an inactive protease into the extracellular matrix and trans-Golgi network. It is expressed in liver, intestine and kidney tissues and escorts specific receptors for lysosomal degradation. It plays a role in cholesterol and fatty acid metabolism. Mutations in this gene have been associated with autosomal dominant familial hypercholesterolemia. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2014]

Variant of Uncertain Significance due to insufficient evidence: This variant is an in-frame deletion of three amino acids in a poorly conserved region of the signal peptide of the PCSK9 protein. To our knowledge, functional assays have not been performed for this variant nor has the variant been reported in individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia in the literature. Computational splicing tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. This variant is rare in the general population and has been identified in 0/277264 chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Available evidence is insufficient to determine the pathogenicity of this variant conclusively. -
