Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PS4_ModeratePP1_StrongPS3_SupportingPM2PVS1PP4

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.2140+1G>A variant is classified as Pathogenic for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying evidence codes (PVS1, PP1_Strong, PM2, PS4_Moderate, PP4 and PS3_Supporting) as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (https://doi.org/10.1101/2021.03.17.21252755). The supporting evidence is as follows: PVS1 - Variant is in canonical splice site and predicts a frameshift in exon 15.PP1_strong - Variant segregates with FH phenotype in 9 members of 4 families (9 informative meioses).PM2 - No population data was found for this allele in gnomAD (gnomAD v2.1.1).PS4_moderate - Variant meets PM2. Variant identified in 7 unrelated index cases fulfilling validated clinical criteria for FH from different labs.PP4 - Variant meets PM2. Variant found in 7 unrelated index cases fulfilling validated clinical criteria for FH.PS3_supporting - PMID:12522687 - Level 3 assay - study on htz patient's lymphocytes. An additional mRNA transcript of ~730 bp was detected; 214 bp retention of intron 14 causing a premature stop codon 99 amino acids later was the identified using cDNA sequencing. 46% LDLR particle clearance.

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]
