Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Strong PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000527.5(LDLR):​c.245G>T​(p.Cys82Phe) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. C82G) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

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 (HGNC:):

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a disulfide_bond (size 14) in uniprot entity LDLR_HUMAN there are 12 pathogenic changes around while only 1 benign (92%) in NM_000527.5
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr19-11102717-T-G is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.986
• PP5: Variant 19-11102718-G-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr19-11102718-G-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 251093.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr19-11102718-G-T is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].

This sequence change replaces cysteine with phenylalanine at codon 82 of the LDLR protein (p.Cys82Phe). The cysteine residue is highly conserved and there is a large physicochemical difference between cysteine and phenylalanine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has been observed in an individual affected with hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 12417285). This variant is also known in the literature as p.Cys61Phe. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 251093). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). The observation of one or more missense substitutions at this codon (p.Cys82Gly, p.Cys82Tyr, p.Cys82Ser) in affected individuals suggests that this may be a clinically significant residue (PMID: 20809525, 11196104, 25461735). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant affects a cysteine residue located within an LDLRA domain of the LDLR protein. Cysteine residues in these domains have been shown to be involved in the formation of disulfide bridges, which are critical for protein structure and stability (PMID: 7548065, 7603991, 7979249). In addition, missense substitutions within the LDLRA domains affecting cysteine residues are overrepresented among patients with hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 18325082). -
