Variant summary
Our verdict is Benign. Variant got -11 ACMG points: 2P and 13B. PM2BP4_StrongBP6_Very_StrongBP7
The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.2388C>T(p.Ile796Ile) variant causes a splice region, synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000347 in 1,613,844 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (★★).

not specified Benign:2
This synonymous variant has occurred in GnomAD with a total MAF of 0.0028% and with the highest MAF of 0.0054% in the European population. This position is 2 bp away from a canonical splicing site, and it is not conserved. In silico splicing algorithm predicted no impact on splicing, but no functional studies were performed to confirm this prediction. This variant NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.2388C>T (p.Ile796=) is present in the ClinVar database (ID: 406165). The variant has not occurred in the literature in association with the disease. Considering that the variant has a relatively high frequency in a subpopulation, it has been classified as Likely Benign. -
Variant summary: LDLR c.2388C>T (p.Ile796Ile) alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. 5/5 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-05 in 277170 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.2388C>T in individuals affected with Familial Hypercholesterolemia and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Co-occurrences with other pathogenic variant(s) have been reported in our internal database (LDLR c.1118_1121dupGTGG, p.Tyr375fsX7), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. Two ClinVar submissions from clinical diagnostic laboratories (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as "likely benign" and "uncertain significance." Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
Hypercholesterolemia, familial, 1 Benign:2
- -
- -
Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1
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. -
