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]

The LDLR c.1871_1873del (p.Ile624del) variant has been reported in the published literature in multiple individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMIDs: 11668640 (2001), 15199436 (2004), 19318025 (2009), 20145306 (2010), 23375686 (2013), 28932795 (2015), 25378237 (2015), 27824480 (2017), and 31491741 (2019)). In vitro functional studies indicated that this variant results in significantly reduced LDLR expression, LDL binding, and LDL uptake compared to wild type (PMID: 25378237 (2015)). This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

The c.1871_1873delTCA pathogenic mutation (also known as p.I624del) is located in coding exon 13 of the LDLR gene. This pathogenic mutation results from an in-frame TCA deletion at nucleotide positions 1871 to 1873. This results in the in-frame deletion of an isoleucine at codon 624. This variant (also known as p.I603del) has been detected in several unrelated individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), FH cohorts, and cohorts referred for FH genetic testing (Leren TP et al. Atherosclerosis, 2021 04;322:61-66; Sturm AC et al. JAMA Cardiol, 2021 08;6:902-909; Tada H et al. J Clin Lipidol 2020 Mar;14:346-351.e9; Gabová D et al. Physiol Res, 2017 03;66:75-84; Etxebarria A et al. Hum Mutat, 2015 Jan;36:129-41; Jannes CE et al. Atherosclerosis, 2015 Jan;238:101-7; Bertolini S et al. Atherosclerosis, 2013 Apr;227:342-8; Chmara M et al. J Appl Genet, 2010;51:95-106). In a functional study, this variant was shown to result in significantly reduced LDLR expression, LDL binding, and LDL uptake compared to wild type (Etxebarria A et al. Hum Mutat, 2015 Jan;36:129-41). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis (Choi Y et al. PLoS ONE. 2012; 7(10):e46688). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant, c.1871_1873del, results in the deletion of 1 amino acid(s) of the LDLR protein (p.Ile624del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has been observed in individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 11668640, 15199436, 20145306, 23375686, 25378237, 25461735, 27824480, 28932795). Invitae Evidence Modeling of clinical and family history, age, sex, and reported ancestry of multiple individuals with this LDLR variant has been performed. This variant is expected to be pathogenic with a positive predictive value of at least 99%. This is a validated machine learning model that incorporates the clinical features of 363,995 individuals referred to our laboratory for LDLR testing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 252097). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on gene product structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies have shown that this variant affects LDLR function (PMID: 25378237). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
