Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -3 ACMG points: 2P and 5B. PM2BP4_StrongBP6
The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.1988-5C>G variant causes a splice region, splice polypyrimidine tract, intron change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000496 in 1,614,130 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 2/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars).

Submissions by phenotype
Hypercholesterolemia, familial, 1 Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina | Apr 27, 2017 | This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. - |

not provided Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano | Sep 15, 2023 | In the published literature, this variant has been reported in individuals affected with hypercholesterolemia (PMIDs: 16389549 (2006), 20236128 (2010), 34040191 (2021)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.0014 (14/10076 chromosomes in Ashkenazi Jewish subpopulation (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is higher than would generally be expected for pathogenic variants in this gene. Analysis of this variant using software algorithms for the prediction of the effect of nucleotide changes on LDLR mRNA splicing yielded inconclusive findings . Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. - |
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | GeneDx | Jan 24, 2023 | Identified in association with FH (Humphries et al., 2006); In silico analysis suggests this variant may impact gene splicing. In the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown.; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 16389549, 34040191) - |

Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Jun 26, 2023 | This alteration is classified as likely 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. - |
