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]

Familial hypercholesterolemia Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthJul 06, 2023This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 15 in the O-linked oligo-saccharide domain of the LDLR gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 10428988, 26802169, 27765764, 28964736, 31993549). It has also been reported in an individual affected with early-onset myocardial infarction (PMID: 30586733). This variant has been identified in 1/31336 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of LDLR function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeMar 03, 2022For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 369849). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with early-onset myocardial infarction and/or familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 26802169, 28964736, 30586733). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.007%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu723*) in the LDLR gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in LDLR are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20809525, 28645073). -
LDLR-related condition Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesSep 23, 2023The LDLR c.2167G>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Glu723*). This variant also described using legacy nomenclature as p.Glu702*, has been documented as a causative variant for Hypercholesterolemia (Wintjens et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26802169; Defesche et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28964736). This variant is reported in 0.0065% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/19-11233876-G-T). Nonsense variants in LDLR are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJul 27, 2023The p.E723* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.2167G>T), located in coding exon 15 of the LDLR gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 2167. This changes the amino acid from a glutamic acid to a stop codon within coding exon 15. This variant (also referred to as Glu702STOP) has been detected in several individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (Frénais R et al. J Lipid Res, 1999 Aug;40:1506-11; Wang J et al. Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol, 2016 Dec;36:2439-2445; Wintjens R et al. J Lipid Res, 2016 Mar;57:482-91; Defesche JC et al. J Clin Lipidol, 2017 Sep;11:1338-1346.e7; Garg A et al. J Endocr Soc, 2020 Jan;4:bvz015). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
