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]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthDec 14, 2023This missense variant (also known as p.Ser265Arg in the mature protein and as FH Greece-2) replaces serine with arginine at codon 286 in the LDLR type A repeat 7 of the ligand binding domain of the LDLR protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). An experimental functional study has shown that this variant in compound heterozygosity with p.Cys173Arg reduces LDLR activity to 5-15% compared to wild type (PMID: 1301956). This variant has been reported in numerous individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 11462246, 11810272, 15015036, 17347910, 23130880, 27578104, 27765764, 28965616, 32829317, 33454241, 33794673; Color Health internal data) and is a recurrent mutation in the Greek population (PMID: 27578104). This variant has been identified in 7/251430 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineMay 28, 2021The p.Ser286Arg variant in LDLR has been reported in more than 25 individuals with hypercholesterolemia and segregated with disease in at least 27 affected individuals from multiple families (Hobbs 1992 PMID: 1301956, Bertolini 2013 PMID: 23375686, Mollaki 2014 PMID: 27578104). Notably, the variant appears to be associated with a milder hypercholesterolemia phenotype (Huijgen 2012 PMID: 22390909). This variant has also been reported in by other clinical laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID 251488) and has been identified in 0.006% (7/113726) of European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This frequency is low enough to be consistent with the frequency of familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) in the general population. In vitro functional studies support an impact on protein function (Hobbs 1992 PMID: 1301956) and computational prediction tools and conservation analyses are consistent with pathogenicity. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant FH. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PS4, PP1_Strong, PM2_supporting, PS3_Supporting, PP3. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoJun 11, 2024The LDLR c.858C>A (p.Ser286Arg) variant has been reported in the published literature in multiple families affected with hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 11462246 (2001), 15015036 (2004), 17347910 (2007), 21925044 (2011), 26361156 (2015), 27765764 (2016), 32770674 (2020), 32977124 (2020), 33794673 (2021), 37409534 (2023)), though it has been reported to produce milder phenotype (PMID: 25463123 (2014)). In a published functional study, this variant resulted in a significant reduction in LDLR activity (PMID: 1301956 (1992)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000062 (7/113726 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is consistent with 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 damaging. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpApr 06, 2017Variant summary: The LDLR c.858C>A (p.Ser286Arg) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. 4/4 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant (SNPs&GO not captured due to low reliability index), which was confirmed by low LDLR activity in patient carrying this variant (Hobbs_1992). This variant was found in 3/121368 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000247, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic LDLR variant (0.0012508). This variant has been reported in a large number of FH patients with milder phenotype. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as likely pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 02, 2025This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 286 of the LDLR protein (p.Ser286Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs140241383, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 1301956, 11317361, 11462246, 15015036, 23130880, 27765764). Invitae Evidence Modeling of clinical and family history, age, sex, and reported ancestry of multiple individuals with this LDLR variant has been performed. This variant is expected to be pathogenic with a positive predictive value of at least 99%. This is a validated machine learning model that incorporates the clinical features of 363,995 individuals referred to our laboratory for LDLR testing. This variant is also known as p.Ser265Arg. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 251488). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt LDLR protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

This variant is also known as p.Ser265Arg in the mature protein and as FH Greece-2 in the literature. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). An experimental functional study has shown that this variant in compound heterozygosity with p.Cys173Arg reduces LDLR activity to 5-15% compared to wild type (PMID: 1301956). This variant has been reported in over 150 individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 11462246, 11810272, 15015036, 17347910, 23130880, 27578104, 27765764, 28965616, 32829317, 33454241, 33794673; Color Health internal data) and is a recurrent mutation in the Greek population (PMID: 27578104). This variant has been identified in 7/251430 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMay 03, 2023The p.S286R pathogenic mutation (also known as c.858C>A), located in coding exon 6 of the LDLR gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 858. The serine at codon 286 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties, and is located in the ligand binding 7 domain. This alteration, also referred to as S265R and FH Greece-2, has been detected in several cohorts and multiple unrelated individuals with hypercholesterolemia from various ethnic backgrounds, and has been reported to result in reduced LDL receptor activity (Hobbs HH et al. Hum. Mutat., 1992;1:445-66; Day IN et al. Hum. Mutat., 1997;10:116-27; Traeger-Synodinos J et al. Hum. Genet., 1998 Mar;102:343-7; Nauck MS et al. Hum. Mutat., 2001 Aug;18:165-6; Mihaylov VA et al.

Atherosclerosis, 2014 Dec;237:798-804; Klanar G et al. J. Am. Coll. Cardiol., 2015 Sep;66:1250-1257). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
