Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5
The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.939C>G(p.Cys313Trp) variant causes a missense, splice region change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000374 in 1,605,204 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. 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. C313G) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Cardiovascular phenotype Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Jun 27, 2022 | The p.C313W variant (also known as c.939C>G), located in coding exon 6 of the LDLR gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 939. The cysteine at codon 313 is replaced by tryptophan, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. Pathogenic LDLR mutations that result in the substitution or generation of cysteine residues within the cysteine-rich LDLR class A repeats and EGF-like domains are common in familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) (Villéger L. Hum Mutat. 2002;20(2):81-7). This variant (also referred to as C292W) has been detected in several individuals reported to have FH or from FH cohorts, and has been detected with the LDLR p.K311R variant (Amsellem S et al. Hum Genet, 2002 Dec;111:501-10; Fouchier SW et al. Hum Mutat. 2005 Dec;26(6):550-6; van der Graaf A et al. Circulation, 2011 Mar;123:1167-73; Futema M et al. Atherosclerosis. 2021 02;319:108-117). Another alteration at the same codon, p.C313W (c.938G>A), has been reported in association with FH (Martin R et al. Atherosclerosis. 2016 11;254:8-13). Internal structural analysis indicates this alteration eliminates a disulfide bond critical for the structural integrity of LDLR class A repeat 7 (Ambry internal data). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. - |
Familial hypercholesterolemia Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp | Nov 25, 2023 | This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 313 of the LDLR protein (p.Cys313Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs13306512, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 11257257, 12436241, 20506408). This variant is also known as C292W. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 251540). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. This variant affects a cysteine residue located within an LDLRA or epidermal-growth-factor (EGF)-like domains 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 and EGF-like domains affecting cysteine residues are overrepresented among patients with hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 18325082). This variant disrupts the p.Cys313 amino acid residue in LDLR. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 9259195, 9698020, 22883975, 23680767). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. - |
