Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points: 0P and 5B. BS1BP4
This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.817+9T>C variant is classified as Likely Benign for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying ACMG/AMP evidence codes BS1 and BP4 as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (specification version 1.2) on 20 February 2025.The supporting evidence is as follows: BS1: PopMax FAF=0.2689% in population exomes/genomes (gnomAD v4.1.0).BP4: Not in splicing limits, so BP4 is met.

Hypercholesterolemia, familial, 1 Uncertain:2Benign:1
The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.817+9T>C variant is classified as Likely Benign for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying ACMG/AMP evidence codes BS1 and BP4 as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (specification version 1.2) on 20 February 2025. The supporting evidence is as follows: BS1: PopMax FAF=0.2689% in population exomes/genomes (gnomAD v4.1.0). BP4: Not in splicing limits, so BP4 is met. -
This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

LDLR-related disorder Benign:1
This variant is classified as likely benign based on ACMG/AMP sequence variant interpretation guidelines (Richards et al. 2015 PMID: 25741868, with internal and published modifications). -
Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1
This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
