Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Human Genome Sequencing Center Clinical Lab, Baylor College of Medicine | Sep 19, 2017 | This c.1432G>A (p.Gly478Arg) variant in the LDLR gene has been reported in multiple patients with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 1301956, 7573037, 9763532, 11810272). Functional studies have indicated that the p.Gly478Arg variant LDLR protein has 2-5% receptor activity compared to wild-type LDLR protein (PMID: 1301956). The c.1432G>A variant is extremely rare in the general population and glycine at position 478 of the LDLR protein is highly evolutionarily conserved. The c.1432G>A (p.Gly478Arg) variant in the LDLR gene is classified as likely pathogenic. - |

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health | Nov 20, 2023 | This missense variant replaces glycine with arginine at codon 478 and alters a conserved glycine residue in the second LDLR type B repeat of the EGF precursor homology domain of the LDLR protein (a.a. 439-485) where pathogenic missense variants are found enriched (ClinVar-LDLR). This variant is also known as p.Gly457Arg in the mature protein sequence and as FH New York-2 and FH Fin-9 in the literature. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have a deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies have shown that this variant causes a defect in protein transport and recycling, and a decreased LDLR activity (PMID: 1301956, 32695144). This variant has been reported in over ten individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 1301956, 7573037, 9763532, 11810272, 22883975, 25618577, 32143996, 32220565, 32331935; Color internal data). In addition, this variant has been shown to segregate with disease in six affected individuals from two families and was absent in four unaffected family members (PMID: 24627126), as well as in 10 informative meiosis from 4 unpublished families (ClinVar variation ID: 161277; accession ID: SCV002506334.1). This variant has been identified in 7/251112 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. - |

Familial hypercholesterolemia Pathogenic:5
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp | Jun 19, 2023 | Variant summary: LDLR c.1432G>A (p.Gly478Arg) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.8e-05 in 251112 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1432G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Familial Hypercholesterolemia (Koivisto_1995, Chiou_2010, Chiou_2017). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 20538126, 28502495, 7573037). 19 ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite this variant as uncertain significance (n=4), likely pathogenic (n=10) and pathogenic (n=5, including one expert panel, ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Variant Curation Expert Panel). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. - |
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Human Genome Sequencing Center Clinical Lab, Baylor College of Medicine | Jan 26, 2023 | The c.1432G>A (p.Gly478Arg) variant in the LDLR gene is located on the exon 10 and is predicted to replace the glycine with arginine at codon 478 (p.Gly478Arg). The variant has been reported in more than 10 unrelated individuals affected with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMIDs: 27206935, 27680772, 32331935). Another variant disrupting the same amino acid (p.Gly478Glu) has been interpreted as likely pathogenic (ClinVar ID: 440642). The p.Gly478Arg variant has been reported in ClinVar (ID: 161277) and reviewed as a pathogenic variant by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Variant Curation Expert Panel. This variant has been observed by different laboratories to segregate with disease in over 10 meioses of 4 families according to the ClinGen Expert Panel. This variant is rare in the general population according to gnomAD (7/251112). Computational prediction algorithms suggest a deleterious impact (REVEL score 0.985). Therefore, the c.1432G>A (p.Gly478Arg) variant of LDLR has been classified as pathogenic. - |
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp | Jan 31, 2024 | This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 478 of the LDLR protein (p.Gly478Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs144614838, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 17087781, 17765246, 21376320, 22353362, 23064986, 27206935, 30592178; Invitae). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as p.Gly457Arg. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 161277). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt LDLR protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Gly478 amino acid residue in LDLR. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with LDLR-related conditions (PMID: 27824480), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. - |
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health | Sep 13, 2023 | This missense variant replaces glycine with arginine at codon 478 and alters a conserved glycine residue in the second LDLR type B repeat of the EGF precursor homology domain of the LDLR protein (a.a. 439-485) where pathogenic missense variants are found enriched (ClinVar-LDLR). This variant is also known as p.Gly457Arg in the mature protein sequence and as FH New York-2 and FH Fin-9 in the literature.

Homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine | Mar 26, 2019 | The p.Gly478Arg (also called p.Gly457Arg) variant in LDLR has been reported in the heterozygous state in >15 individuals with hypercholesterolemia, and segregated with disease in at least 4 relatives from these families (Hobbs 1992, Koivisto 1995, Bourbon 2008, Alonso 2009, Ahmad 2012, Hooper 2012, Lange 2014, Safaro 2017, ClinVar: Variation ID 161277). The variant has also been reported in two individuals who were compound heterozygous for this variant and a second variant in LDLR (Mak 1998, Chiou 2010). Additionally, another nucleotide change (c.1432G>C) leading to the same amino acid change has been reported in 2 individuals with FH, one of whom was homozygous for the variant (Fouchier 2005, Widhalm 2017). In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that the p.Gly478Arg variant may impact protein function (Hobbs 1992). This variant has been also been identified in 2/17246 East Asian chromosomes and 2/16208 African chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that the p.Gly478Arg variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, the p.Gly478Arg variant is likely pathogenic.

Cardiovascular phenotype Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | May 23, 2024 | The p.G478R pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1432G>A), located in coding exon 10 of the LDLR gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1432. The glycine at codon 478 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This variant (also described as legacy p.G457R) has been described in several patients with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) (Koivisto UM et al. Am J Hum Genet. 1995;57:789-97; Mak YT et al. Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol. 1998;18:1600-5; Bourbon M et al. Atherosclerosis. 2008;196:633-42; Chiou KR et al. J Clin Lipidol. 2016;10(3):490-6; Tada H et al. J Clin Lipidol Dec;12:397-402.e2; Hartgers ML et al. J Clin Lipidol Dec;12:390-396.e8; Ambry internal data). Based on internal structural analysis, this variant is anticipated to result in a significant decrease in structural stability (Lo Surdo P et al. EMBO Rep., 2011 Dec;12:1300-5). In an assay testing LDLR function, this variant showed a functionally abnormal result (Graça R et al. JACC Basic Transl Sci, 2023 Aug;8:1010-1021). In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the supporting evidence, this variant is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. - |
