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]
LDLR-AS1 (HGNC:54407): (LDLR antisense RNA 1) This gene represents a regulatory lncRNA that overlaps the 5' UTR and coding sequence of the LDLR (low density lipoprotein receptor) gene. This lncRNA overlaps LDLR in the antisense orientation, and has been shown to downregulate production of the low density lipoprotein receptor. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2019]

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:reviewed by expert panel
Collection Method:curation

The NM_000527.5 (LDLR):c.48C>A (p.Leu16=) variant is classified as Likely Benign for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying ACMG/AMP evidence codes PM2, PP4, BP4 and BP7 as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (specification version 1.2) on 7 November 2023. The supporting evidence is as follows: PM2: PopMax MAF=0.00006 in Latino population in gnomAD (gnomAD v2.1.1). PP4: Variant meets PM2 and is identified in 1 index case with possible FH by Simon Broome criteria, after alternative causes of high cholesterol were excluded, from PMID 7635461 (Ekstrom et al., 1995), Sweden. BP4: Variant is synonymous and splicing evaluation is required. Functional data on splicing is not available. MES: A) Not on limits. B) Not on limits. Variant is not predicted to alter splicing. SpliceAI did not predict alternative splicing (? score=0). BP7 met: Variant is synonymous and meets BP4. This variant has 2 supporting evidence codes (BP4, BP7) towards Benign, enough to classify as Likely Benign, and only PM2 and PP4 evidence codes towards Pathogenic, not enough for Likely Pathogenic, so we are confident in classifying this variant as Likely Benign. -

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. -
