Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -10 ACMG points: 0P and 10B. BP4_StrongBP6BS1BS2_Supporting

The NM_174936.4(PCSK9):​c.2038C>T​(p.Arg680Trp) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000156 in 1,613,094 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 3 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R680Q) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -10 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.022096336).
BP6
Variant 1-55063543-C-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr1-55063543-C-T is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 375843.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.000167 (244/1460748) while in subpopulation SAS AF = 0.0024 (207/86188). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00213. There are 3 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 176 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAdExome4 at 3 AD,AR geneVariant has number of homozygotes lower than other variant known as pathogenic in the gene, so the strength is limited to Supporting.

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. -
