Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1 PM2 PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000527.5(LDLR):​c.2072C>A​(p.Ser691*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000137 in 1,461,784 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. S691S) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 19-11120454-C-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr19-11120454-C-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 252206.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr19-11120454-C-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

The p.S691* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.2072C>A), located in coding exon 14 of the LDLR gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 2072. This changes the amino acid from a serine to a stop codon within coding exon 14. This mutation has been detected in familial hypercholesterolemia cohorts (Bertolini S et al. Atherosclerosis, 2013 Apr;227:342-8; Chan ML et al. Mol Genet Genomic Med, 2019 02;7:e00520). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
