Hypercholesterolemia, familial, 1 Uncertain:2Benign:1
- -
This missense variant (also known as p.Ala29Thr in the mature protein) replaces alanine with threonine at codon 50 of the LDLR protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 17347910, 10422804, 30293936). This variant has been identified in 21/282594 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The elevated variant allele frequency in the general population indicates that this variant may not be disease-causing. However, additional studies are necessary to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

not specified Uncertain:1
Variant identified in a genome or exome case(s) and assessed due to predicted null impact of the variant or pathogenic assertions in the literature or databases. Disclaimer: This variant has not undergone full assessment. The following are preliminary notes: Reported in probands, but no segregation data; ClinVar: 1 LB, 1 VUS -
not provided Uncertain:1
The LDLR c.148G>A (p.Ala50Thr) variant (also known as A29T) has been reported in the published literature in individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMIDs: 17347910 (2007), 10422804 (1999), 30293936 (2018)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00068 (17/24956 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1
This alteration is classified as 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. -
