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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeMar 01, 2022This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 774 of the LDLR protein (p.Asp774Asn). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with elevated low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and/or premature myocardial infarction (PMID: 24507775, 30971288). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 403663). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The asparagine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJan 26, 2023The p.D774N variant (also known as c.2320G>A), located in coding exon 16 of the LDLR gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 2320. The aspartic acid at codon 774 is replaced by asparagine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant has been detected in cohorts with high LDL cholesterol and/or premature myocardial infarction; however, clinical details were limited (Lange LA et al. Am J Hum Genet, 2014 Feb;94:233-45; Lee C et al. Lipids Health Dis, 2019 Apr;18:95). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
