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]

Hypercholesterolemia, familial, 1 Pathogenic:4
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineApr 16, 2020The p.Cys222_Asp227dup variant in LDLR (also known as FH Padua-4l) has been reported in 5 families with hypercholesterolemia, occured de novo in 1 of these individuals, and segregated with disease in at least 1 affected relative (Bertolini 2000, Chmara 2010, Giesel 1995, Kotze 1995, Pavanello 2019). This variant has also been identified in 1/12968 of European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org) and has been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID 3733). This variant is an insertion of 6 amino acids at position 222 and is not predicted to alter the protein reading-frame. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for autosomal dominant hypercholesterolemia.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 10, 2022For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 3733). This variant is also known as p.201-206dup and CKDKSD206–207ins. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 7581403, 7649546, 10978268, 20145306). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is present in population databases (rs387906306, gnomAD 0.0009%). This variant, c.664_681dup, results in the insertion of 6 amino acid(s) of the LDLR protein (p.Cys222_Asp227dup), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. -
