This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: NM_000527.5(LDLR): c.530C>T (p.Ser177Leu) variant is classified as Pathogenic for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying evidence codes (PS3, PS4, PM1, PM2, PM3, PP1_Strong, PP3, PP4 and BS4) as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gim.2021.09.012).The supporting evidence is as follows:PS3 - PMID:31578082 - Level 1 assay - Heterologous cells (CHO), FACS assays and CLSM: 65% cell surface LDLR, 10% binding and <2% uptake. PMID:2760205 - Level 2 assay - Homozygous patient fibroblast, 125I-LDL assays: <2% LDLR activity. PMID:25647241 - Level 3 assay - Heterologous cells (HeLa), CLSM assays: LDLR activity decreased compared to WT - considered as disruptive.PS4 - Variant meets PM2. Variant identified in 30 unrelated index cases (5 cases (2 with DLCN≥6; 3 with Simon-Broome possible) from Centre de Génétique Moléculaire et Chromosomique, Unité de génétique de l'Obésité et des Dyslipidémies (APHP.Sorbonne Université, Hôpital de la Pitié-Salpêtrière); 1 case with Simon-Broome possible from GeneDx Inc.; 11 cases with Simon-Broome possible from Cardiovascular Research Group,Instituto Nacional de Saude Doutor Ricardo Jorge; 13 cases with Simon-Broome possible/definite from Molecular Genetics Laboratory (Centre for Cardiovascular Surgery and Transplantation).PM1 - Variant meets PM2 and is missense in exon 4.PM2 - PopMax MAF = 0.00006533 (0.006533%) in South Asian exomes+genomes (gnomAD v2.1.1).PM3 - Patient 3 from PMID:18263977 has LDL = 19.7 mmol/l and also LDLR p.Arg350* in trans - Pathogenic by these guidelines. Two true homozygotes (FHF23 and FHF57) published in PMID:27816806 had LDL = 16.2 mmol/l and 22.6 mmol/l, respectively.PP1_Strong - Variant segregates with FH phenotype in 52 informative meiosis in 26 families from different labs (Laboratory of Genetics and Molecular Cardiology, University of São Paulo; Centre de Génétique Moléculaire et Chromosomique, Unité de génétique de l'Obésité et des Dyslipidémies (APHP.Sorbonne Université, Hôpital de la Pitié-Salpêtrière); Molecular Genetics Laboratory (Centre for Cardiovascular Surgery and Transplantation); Cardiovascular Research Group,Instituto Nacional de Saude Doutor Ricardo Jorge): 43 relatives tested positive had LDL-C >75th percentile + 9 relatives tested negative had LDL-C <50th percentile.PP3 - REVEL = 0.886.PP4 - Variant meets PM2. Variant identified in 30 unrelated index cases who fulfill clinical criteria for FH from several labs (see PS4 for details).BS4 - Variant does not segregate with phenotype in 14 informative meiosis from at least 6 families from different labs (Laboratory of Genetics and Molecular Cardiology, University of São Paulo; Molecular Genetics Laboratory (Centre for Cardiovascular Surgery and Transplantation); Cardiovascular Research Group,Instituto Nacional de Saude Doutor Ricardo Jorge): 13 relatives tested negative but had LDL-C >75th percentile + 1 relative tested positive but LDL-C <50th percentile.Variant has 3 Strong, 3 Moderate and 2 Supporting evidence codes towards Pathogenic, enough to classify as Pathogenic, and only 1 Strong evidence codes towards Benign. The Pathogenic criteria overwhelms the Benign criteria, so we are confident in classifying this variant as 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]
