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]
MIR6886 (HGNC:50121): (microRNA 6886) microRNAs (miRNAs) are short (20-24 nt) non-coding RNAs that are involved in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression in multicellular organisms by affecting both the stability and translation of mRNAs. miRNAs are transcribed by RNA polymerase II as part of capped and polyadenylated primary transcripts (pri-miRNAs) that can be either protein-coding or non-coding. The primary transcript is cleaved by the Drosha ribonuclease III enzyme to produce an approximately 70-nt stem-loop precursor miRNA (pre-miRNA), which is further cleaved by the cytoplasmic Dicer ribonuclease to generate the mature miRNA and antisense miRNA star (miRNA*) products. The mature miRNA is incorporated into a RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC), which recognizes target mRNAs through imperfect base pairing with the miRNA and most commonly results in translational inhibition or destabilization of the target mRNA. The RefSeq represents the predicted microRNA stem-loop. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]

Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant (also known as p.Asn407Lys in the mature protein) replaces asparagine with lysine at codon 428 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). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with LDLR-related disorders in the literature. This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). However, a different nucleotide change resulting in the same protein consequence (c.1284C>G) is reported to be disease-causing (ClinVar variation ID: 251766), suggesting that this variant under investigation (c.1284C>A) may also be disease-causing. Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 428 of the LDLR protein (p.Asn428Lys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). A different variant (c.1284C>G) giving rise to the same protein effect has been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 11005141, 11238294, 11668640, 11857755; Invitae). This suggests that this variant is also likely to be causative of disease. This variant is also known as N407K. 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%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant is also known as c.1221C>G (p.Asn407Lys) by legacy nomenclature. The c.1284C>A (p.Asn428Lys) variant affects a highly conserved amino acid and is predicted by multiple in silico tools to have a deleterious effect on protein function. This variant has been previously reported as a heterozygous change in individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (PMID: 11005141, 11668640, 11845603, 11857755, 14508510, 15556094, 21382890, 35047021, 36499307). The c.1284C>A (p.Asn428Lys) variant is present in the latest version of the gnomAD population database at an allele frequency of 0.0002% (3/1613996) and thus is presumed to be rare. Based on the available evidence, c.1284C>A (p.Asn428Lys) is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
