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.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthJul 10, 2017Variant of Uncertain Significance due to insufficient evidence: This variant (also known as p.Ser3774Thr in the mature protein) is a missense variant located in the beta 2 domain of the APOB protein. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may not impact the protein function. Computational splicing tools suggest that this variant may not impact the RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional assays have not been performed for this variant nor has the variant been reported in individuals affected with FH in the literature. This variant has been identified in 323/277014 chromosomes (238/126528 European chromosomes) with 1 homozygote in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Although this variant is fairly common in the population (0.12%), evidence is insufficient to rule out its pathogenicity conclusively. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesOct 19, 2023The APOB c.11401T>A; p.Ser3801Thr variant (rs12713540) is reported in the literature in at least one individual with familial hypercholesterolemia (Alves 2018, Medeiros 2016), and in an individual with severe proliferative diabetic retinopathy (Ung 2017). This variant is also reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 237734). It is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.1% (333/282686 alleles, including 1 homozygote) in the Genome Aggregation Database. Computational analyses predict that this variant is neutral (REVEL: 0.102). Due to limited information, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain at this time.

Hypercholesterolemia, autosomal dominant, type B Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJan 13, 2018This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -
