Genes affected

APOB (HGNC:603): (apolipoprotein B) This gene product is the main apolipoprotein of chylomicrons and low density lipoproteins (LDL), and is the ligand for the LDL receptor. It occurs in plasma as two main isoforms, apoB-48 and apoB-100: the former is synthesized exclusively in the gut and the latter in the liver. The intestinal and the hepatic forms of apoB are encoded by a single gene from a single, very long mRNA. The two isoforms share a common N-terminal sequence. The shorter apoB-48 protein is produced after RNA editing of the apoB-100 transcript at residue 2180 (CAA->UAA), resulting in the creation of a stop codon, and early translation termination. Mutations in this gene or its regulatory region cause hypobetalipoproteinemia, normotriglyceridemic hypobetalipoproteinemia, and hypercholesterolemia due to ligand-defective apoB, diseases affecting plasma cholesterol and apoB levels.

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Nov 14, 2023	Variant summary: APOB c.10679A>G (p.Tyr3560Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of three in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 250954 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.10679A>G has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Familial Defective Apolipoprotein B/Familial Hypercholesterolaemia (example, Medeiros_2010, Liyange_2008, Vaca_2011, Medeiros_2014, Futema_2021). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 18325181, 21722902, 24627126, 33508743, 20828696). Nine submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified this variant as uncertain significance (n=4), likely pathogenic (n=4) and pathogenic (n=1). Multiple submitters reported the variant with conflicting assessments. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano	Jul 31, 2020	The best available variant frequency is uninformative because it is below the disease allele frequency. Found in at least one patient with expected phenotype for this gene. Predicted to have a damaging effect on the protein. This variant is statistically more frequent in affected individuals than in the general population and/or healthy controls. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories	Oct 19, 2022	The APOB c.10679A>G; p.Tyr3560Cys variant (rs745721296), also known as Y3533C, is reported in the literature in multiple individuals with diagnosed or suspected familial hypercholesterolemia (Lima-Martínez 2017, Liyanage 2008, Medeiros 2010, Sturm 2021, Vaca 2011). This variant is also reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 265892) and is only observed on three alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The tyrosine at codon 3533 is highly conserved, and computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.678). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be likely pathogenic. References: Lima-Martínez MM et al.

This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 3560 of the APOB protein (p.Tyr3560Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs745721296, gnomAD 0.009%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 18325181, 20828696, 21722902, 28895539; Invitae). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as p.Tyr3533Cys. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 265892). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on APOB protein function. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The p.Y3560C variant (also known as c.10679A>G), located in coding exon 26 of the APOB gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 10679. The tyrosine at codon 3560 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This variant has been identified in several individuals diagnosed with familial hypercholesterolemia (Lima-Martínez MM et al. Endocrinol Diabetes Nutr, 2017 Oct;64:432-439; Vaca G et al. Atherosclerosis, 2011 Oct;218:391-6; Medeiros AM et al. Atherosclerosis, 2010 Oct;212:553-8; Liyanage KE et al. Ann Clin Biochem, 2008 Mar;45:170-6). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
