Genes affected
PCSK9 (HGNC:20001): (proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9) This gene encodes a member of the subtilisin-like proprotein convertase family, which includes proteases that process protein and peptide precursors trafficking through regulated or constitutive branches of the secretory pathway. The encoded protein undergoes an autocatalytic processing event with its prosegment in the ER and is constitutively secreted as an inactive protease into the extracellular matrix and trans-Golgi network. It is expressed in liver, intestine and kidney tissues and escorts specific receptors for lysosomal degradation. It plays a role in cholesterol and fatty acid metabolism. Mutations in this gene have been associated with autosomal dominant familial hypercholesterolemia. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2014]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -13 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.49).
BP6
Variant 1-55039978-C-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr1-55039978-C-T is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 262902.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.00833 (1270/152386) while in subpopulation SAS AF = 0.0134 (65/4834). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0108. There are 8 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 658 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 34. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 8 AD,AR gene
