Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -9 ACMG points: 0P and 9B. BA1BP4

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.2389+41C>A variant is classified as Benign for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying ACMG/AMP evidence codes BA1 and BP4 as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (specification version 1.2) on 24 March 2025. The supporting evidence is as follows: BA1: FAF = 0.01376 (1.376%) in African/African American exomes (gnomAD v4.1.0).BP4: No REVEL, splicing evaluation required. Functional data on splicing not available. A) not on limits. B) Does not create a GT. C) No nearby GT. Variant is not predicted to alter splicing.

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]
