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]

Familial hypercholesterolemia Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpNov 19, 2021This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 237 of the LDLR protein (p.Arg237His). This variant is present in population databases (rs148171426, gnomAD 0.009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with myocardial infarction (22-213488). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 375798). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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 testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthJun 15, 2023This missense variant (also known as p.Arg216His in the mature protein) replaces arginine with histidine at codon 237 of the LDLR protein. 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). An experimental cell-based high-throughput LDLR activity assay has shown that this variant may be non-disruptive for LDLR function (PMID: 25647241). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals affected with LDLR-related disorders in the literature, but it has been reported in several healthy control individuals (PMID: 25487149). This variant has been identified in 13/282882 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoAug 03, 2023In the published literature, this variant has been reported in an individual with high LDL cholesterol (PMID: 24507775 (2014)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000085 (3/35438 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 conflicting predictions that this variant is benign or damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
