Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -2 ACMG points: 1P and 3B. BP7PP1BP4BP2

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.1875C>T (p.Asn625=) variant is classified as Likely Benign for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying evidence codes PP1, BP2, BP4, and BP7 as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gim.2021.09.012). Variant has 3 supporting evidence codes towards Benign, enough to classify as Likely benign, and only 1 supporting evidence codes towards Pathogenic. The Benign criteria overwhelms the Pathogenic criteria, so we are confident in classifying this variant as Likely benign.The supporting evidence is as follows: PP1: Variant segregates with FH phenotype in 2 informative meioses in 1 families from Cardiovascular Research Group, Instituto Nacional de Saude Doutor Ricardo Jorge. So PP1 is met. BP2: 1 individual from Cardiovascular Research Group,Instituto Nacional de Saude Doutor Ricardo Jorge with LDLR c.1598G>A. Phenotype LDL 168mg/dl under statins - Htz phenotype, c.1598G>A - Pathogenic by these guidelines. BP4: No REVEL available, splicing evaluation needed.Functional data on splicing not available.A) variant not on limits.B) variant is exonic and at least 50bp upstream from the canonical donor site, but it does not create AG.C) there is an AG nearby.MES scores: variant cryptic = -1.41, wt cryptic = -2.30, canonical acceptor = 9.58.Ratio variant cryptic/wt cryptic: -1.41/-2.30 = 0.61 --- it is not above 1.1Ratio variant cryptic/canonical acceptor: -1.41/9.58 = 0.15--- it is not above 0.9Variant is not predicted to alter splicing. So BP4 is met. BP7: Variant is synonymous and meets BP4. LINK:https://erepo.genome.network/evrepo/ui/classification/CA023600/MONDO:0007750/013

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]

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

Significance: Likely benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
