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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingFulgent Genetics, Fulgent GeneticsOct 12, 2021- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 27, 2021This sequence change replaces glycine with valine at codon 106 of the PCSK9 protein (p.Gly106Val). The glycine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between glycine and valine. This variant is present in population databases (rs370751343, ExAC 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PCSK9-related conditions. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. 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. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsFeb 17, 2023The p.G106V variant (also known as c.317G>T), located in coding exon 2 of the PCSK9 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 317. The glycine at codon 106 is replaced by valine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Familial hypercholesterolemia Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthDec 10, 2020This missense variant replaces glycine with valine at codon 106 of the PCSK9 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 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 familial hypercholesterolemia in the literature. This variant has been identified in 2/251378 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. -
